The Looted Gold

[normchurch]

Back in 1932, John F C Westerman published a book for kids called The Looted Gold. Does anyone remember it. If so, can they give me a plot precis and the main characters?

"To discuss the plots of "The Looted Gold" or "A Mystery of the Air" would take up too much space. Sufficient to say they are widely differing stories in many ways. The action in the former moves from South Africa to Antarctica whereas the latter stays strictly within the English and French region. The villain and his twisted motivation in the gold robbery story is developed in some detail whereas the antagonist in the air mystery story is a concealed surprise. Both contain descriptions of extraordinary aeroplane technology, including gas-filled aircraft and almost atomic weaponry. Both deploy action sequences which are really quite gripping and John F.C. Westerman handles combat in the air material with impressive style and verve."

Is there a character called Iwilavit in either?
