Exciting children's adventure story
Probably the best of the series. An offer of a night flight with their friend, Bill Cunningham, turns into a thrilling adventure when the 4 children board the wrong 'plane and are carried off to a beautiful, abandoned valley in Austria. Here, free of adult supervision, they get the better of a gang of international criminals on the trail of hidden Nazi loot, rescue, and then lose, a prisoner, find a perfect hideout which eventually leads them to the treasure and finally manage to arrange a daring escape from the valley for one of their number, Philip, in the gang's 'plane. Help arrives in the form of Bill Cunningham and the children and the elderly guardians of the treasure are rescued. An unputdownable adventure in the very best Blyton tradition.

Strange things happen after getting on the wrong aeroplane!
Bill Cunningham, secret agent, gets a new aeroplane. Having promised to take the children on a nite time flight they get on the wrong aeroplane. Landing in the valley of adventure, two strange men are hunting for treasure and the children rescue a prisoner who gives them a treasure map! I really enjoyed this story - hope you do too!

First rate children's adventure from start to finish.
Off on a night pleasure-flight piloted by their friend Bill Cunningham, the four children throw off the reins of adult supervision by getting on the wrong 'plane and being carried of to a beautiful, abandoned valley in Austria by a band of Nazi-treasure hunters. Left to their own devices, the children find a safe hiding place, relieve the gangsters of some of their food and so make life well worth living, rescue, and then lose, a brutally treated prisoner who knows not only the whereabouts of the treasure but also the way out of the valley (which turns out to be blocked)...An unputdownable adventure.
