“Grounded by fog among the Essex marshes, Biggles and Algy see a giant foreign flying-boat land on an illuminated creek.  This is the beginning of a perilous adventure that takes them into the forbidden territory of Soviet Russia.  With them goes Ginger, whose impudence, daring and resource prove of immense value in tight corners.”
