This is the best kids' book I've read since Philip Pullman.
What a ripsnorter of a yarn!

Mixed in is the story of a missing treasure - millions of dollars worth of diamonds which mysteriously disappeared, along with the children's great-grandfather, in 1942.
Join the Jirroo kids on a their quest to save Eagle Beach, and get lost along the way on a modern-day treasure hunt.
