From the publisher:
Here we go again for a new adventure of the mischievous Astrid Bromure!
One morning, Mrs. Bromure (Pandora is her first name) receives a letter from her brother Hazel inviting her to spend a few days in Scotland to finally give her the box of family relics. When her husband tells her that he has more serious things to do than go there, Mrs. Bromure accompanied by Ms. Poppyscoop, Mrs. Dottie and Astrid, decides to take to the road, for the Highlands.
Astrid meets her eccentric uncle. And discovering his laboratory, hiding all kinds of experiments and living species, Astrid is quick to release, by accident, a baby plesiosaur whose growth becomes uncontrollable. The animal escapes and hides in the depths of the Loch. The solution? Capture it and put it in Uncle Hazel's rejuvenating machine of course!
