Book description
Are the Old Martians really a lost race - just withered mummies lying
in dark caves? Or are they still alive - somewhere on the red planet?
Sally and Jim must find out. They must help their father discover if the
Old Martians exist. His life work as a scientist is at stake! But it's
not easy. They are only visitors to the Mars colony in this year 2017.
