Plot introduction

The children are supposed to be staying at Kirrin Cottage, but as soon as George's parents' maid Joanna catches scarlet fever, the Five are sent to live with an old friend, called Tinker, and his famous scientist father, who first appeared in Five Go to Demon's Rocks (1961). When top secret papers belonging to the scientist go missing, it is left up to the children to find the thief. There are some circus folk camping in Tinker's field. Five then head to the castle in the moor near Tinker's field.

The Five suspect Mr.Wooh, a genius working in the circus, because Mr.Wooh was famous for being very fast at arithmetic calculations. Therefore, they planned to hide the rest of the papers at Kirrin Island. Initially, Julian and Dick decided to go to the island. However, George goes there without anyone's notice and traps Mr.Wooh and another accomplice there, deserted on the island. The Five then log a case against them. Next day, Tinker finds eventually that Charlie the Chimp is the thief trained by Mr.Wooh.
