Blurb: 
The sea has left Skirlston - except when spring tides race in over the miles of dangerous sands. And it"s down on the sands that Arnold Haithwaite meets the shifty-looking stranger who claims that he is the real Arnold Haithwaite and that Arnold himself is nobody: just a child dumped on a doorstep sixteen years before. What"s more, the stranger means to take over Arnold"s home and identity. It"s a running battle that comes to a climax when Arnold confronts the menacing intruder and an even greater menace: the highest tide of the year, with westerly gale behind it.
