About this listen

Follow the exploits of the children who go to a most unusual school - the sail-powered training ship Tobermory.

When a film crew arrives in Tobermory Bay, Ben and Fee are invited to be extras. But their suspicions are soon aroused - is the film crew genuine, or are they up to something sinister?

Ben and Fee soon discover the truth when they uncover a dastardly plan masterminded by a South American businessman.

Seriously ???

Surely, this is meant to be a children's book! I found the whole thing seriously annoying. Perhaps I'm losing my sense of humour, but I can't believe anyone (except perhaps a child) would take this book seriously. If you're writing a book for children, then please make it clear who the intended audience is.
I must say, I did enjoy McCall Smith's first book - and even two or three after that perhaps. But after that, I was totally disengaged. He seemed to be just trotting out formulaic blurbs that failed to entertain (me).
I've got no more to say.
