"After the perils of Iceland, the Bakers plan to enjoy a relaxing vacation with their relatives, the Drakes, in Scotland. Andy goes deer stalking with Uncle Clive, Abby goes horse-back riding and sightseeing with Phil and their cousin Millie. Tom travels with his parents to the Isle of Bute. Three incidents throw the trip into a spiral of confusion, and, scattered across Scotland, the Bakers have clues that don't seem to belong to the same puzzle. A government weapon has fallen into the hands of a top-secret academy, and the only way to stop the spread of dangerous lies is to find the weapon and discover the significance of the name 'Haelix.' Who was the desperate poacher? Can Millie help Detective Mortimer solve the mystery while the Bakers' favorite secret agent is being pursued in a relentless Highland manhunt? And can Phil and the twins reach him before it's too late? Find out in Hunting in the Highlands. A race across the moors, a clue beneath the waves of Loch Ness, and an ever-shifting game of strategy -- everyone is hunting for a long-hidden message that could affect the future of the free world."--Page 4 of cover
