As the Famous Five learn about the marsh and fog that surrounds Castaway Hill, they also learn about the numerous secret doors and the network of passageways inside the hill that was used by smugglers once upon a time. As the possibility of smugglers still present at Castaway Hill increases, the Famous Five must find both Sooty and Uncle Quentin who suddenly disappear.
