There is very light wear to the top and bottom of the spine and the dust jacket is price-clipped. "On the southern boundary of Nepal where it meets India there is a strip of marshy land which is known as the Terai. When Algy Lacey penetrates this jungle area on the trail of a gold-smuggling racket, why does he switch from an Auster aircraft to a Hunter fighter and disappear without trace so soon afterwards? Biggles loses no time in flying out in search of his friend, only to find himself confronted with a mystery as seemingly impenetrable as the Terai itself". Publisher series: Biggles 74 . Jacket design by Leslie Stead. (Juvenile, Adventure and Adventurers, Children's Books, Fighter Aces, Juvenile).
