The Mystery of the Secret of Phantom Lakes – SOLVED

Remember those Phantom Lake hardbacks I ordered recently? Well, the first one has arrived in the post:Eh?

It just goes to show how utterly useless some of these book dealers are on the web. The old saying, “they couldn’t run a bath” appears applicable here. Anyway, I emailed the Abebooks seller and asked for a refund. Here is his reply:

So fair enough. After all, I didn’t check with him that it was a hardback before I bought it, so at least I got my money back. The other one that is on its way is definitely a hardback, as I asked the seller before I placed my order, so fingers crossed for that one.
