The Rattling Cat is a thrilling tale of smuggling in the late eighteenth century on the coast of Kent. The young hero, Miles Papillion, is sent to stay with his uncle, the landlord of the Noahs Ark, a hostelry with a dubious reputation. He is swiftly embroiled in the search for a smugglers tunnel guarded by a ghostly skeleton, which involves him in alarming situations such as being held up in a coach by a highwayman, almost drowning while swimming from a bathing machine, escaping down the revolving sail of a windmill, and leading an escape on the Goodwin Sands. His loyalties are challenged when he befriends the local inhabitants, saints and sinners, each connected with the 'Wicked Trade.'
