Edité par Oxford University Press | 2008

Mr. Ross lives on an island where no visitors come. He stops people from taking photographs of him. He is young and rich, but he looks sad. And there is one room in his house which is always locked. Carol Sanders and her mother come to the island to work for Mr. Ross. Carol soon decides that there is something very strange about Mr. Ross. Where did he get his money from? How can a young man buy an island? So she watches, and she listens - and one night she learns what is behind the locked door

M. Ross vit dans une île où aucun visiteur ne vient. Il interdit aux gens de prendre des photographies de lui. Il est jeune et riche, mais il semble triste. Et il y a une pièce dans sa maison qui est toujours fermée. Carol Sander et sa mère viennent dans l'île pour travailler pour M. Ross. Carol devine qu'il y a quelque chose de très étrange chez M. Ross. D'où a-t-il obtenu son argent ? Comment un jeune homme peut-il acheter une île ? Donc elle observe et elle écoute - et une nuit elle apprend ce qui est derrière la porte fermée.
