Tintin investigates the presence of a spy at Professor Calculus's house, where the scientist is working on a three-dimensional machine. The clue leads to a lake with sharks, the setting of a chase in which Tintin and Snowy have a light aircraft and a submarine at their disposal.
English translation by Leslie Lonsdale-Cooper and Michael Turner; the original work was published in French as «Tintin et le lac aux requins» in 1973.
Suitable for child and young adult readers aged 8 and over, especially for those who want to read Tintin in English.
Georges Prosper Remi, known by the pen name Hergé, from the French pronunciation of his reversed initials RG, was a Belgian comic strip artist. He is best known for creating The Adventures of Tintin, the series of comic albums that are considered one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century. He was also responsible for two other well-known series, Quick & Flupke (1930–1940) and The Adventures of Jo, Zette and Jocko (1936–1957). His works were executed in his distinctive ligne claire drawing style.
