Synopsis
Full of energy and short of funds, old chums Tommy Beresford and Tuppence Cowley decide to form the 'Young Adventurers,' and advertise themselves as willing to 'go anywhere and do anything.' Asked by a British Intelligence official to find a woman named Jane Finn, who disappeared with sensitive government documents, they soon find that their whimsical idea has drawn them into a complicated web of intrigue, intelligence agents, dubious identities, missing government papers, false clues — and all-too-real danger.

Reviews
Around Disc 03 or so, the reader of this audio book develops a head cold or stuffed nose which lasts until the end of the book. At first I thought I was imagining it, but nope! This reader definitely needs a Kleenex. It was very annoying and distracted from the story.
