Description:

Tintin, his faithful dog Snowy and the irascible Captain Haddock fly to Syldavia for what should be a quiet holiday with Professor Calculus, who has invented a remarkable machine that can copy almost any object from a small piece of soap. But strange things keep happening at the lakeside villa — a sabotaged plane, a hidden walkie-talkie, two local children mysteriously kidnapped — and Tintin soon suspects that the Professor's invention is in grave danger. Behind it all lurks the shadowy "King Shark", whose secret lair lies in a sunken city at the bottom of the lake. Adapted from the 1972 animated film and scripted by Hergé's friend Greg, this fast-paced adventure pits the world's most famous reporter against an old enemy in a thrilling underwater showdown of submarines, secret tunnels and stolen masterpieces.
