ABOUT THE BOOK: LE SECRET DE LA LICORNE

“Le Secret de La Licorne” (The Secret of the Unicorn) is the eleventh thrilling instalment in “The Adventures of Tintin” series, created by the renowned Belgian cartoonist Hergé. Originally published in 1943, this story is part of a two-book adventure that continues in “Red Rackham’s Treasure.”

In “Le Secret de La Licorne,” Tintin stumbles upon a mystery involving an old model ship called the Unicorn. After purchasing the model at a market, Tintin discovers that it holds a secret—a hidden scroll that, along with two other scrolls, reveals the location of a lost treasure belonging to the notorious pirate Red Rackham. With his trusty dog Snowy and his friend Captain Haddock, Tintin embarks on an exciting quest to find the other models and uncover the treasure.

This story is noted for its rich plot, memorable characters, and the introduction of Captain Haddock’s ancestor, Sir Francis Haddock, who plays a key role in the unfolding mystery. The narrative combines elements of historical intrigue, adventure, and treasure hunting, all brought to life through Hergé’s meticulous illustrations and engaging storytelling.
