Summary: An adventurous book with lots of startling conclusions.
Comment: Earlier publications of this book used a different title"The Secret Passage," but it is exactly the same story. After the death of their mother, John, Mary and Ben Mallory must go to England to live with their Aunt Mable in a boarding house by the sea. They automatically hate the place, which is dark and gloomy, and they miss their home in Africa which is sunny with lots of open space. The house next door to Aunt Mables is very large and used to belong to their mother and Aunt Mable when they were both young girls. While they are staying at the boarding house they find out many secrets about their family from the other two perminant guests at the boarding house; Miss Pin, an eccentric old lady who knew their mother and aunt as little girls; and Mr.Agnew, an unsuccessful artists who has lived at the house rent free for a long time. One day, while playing in the basement, they come across a tunnel, a secret passage, that leads into the large house next door, which John has named the House of Secrets as it is to be the secret hiding place of the three siblings.......but someone is already living there...and the house was supposed to have been empty for years.
