Biggles Hunts Big Game finds the team in Africa infiltrating a money printing operation threatening to destabilise the whole world - or at least that's what Colonel Raymond thinks.

Faced with an unsolvable problem of fake money and stamps, Biggles and the team track the culprits to their African hideaway within about 50 pages. The rest of the book provides time for Ginger to get attacked by a Buffalo, for Bertie to pretend to be trampled to death, and for Capt Johns to provide another serve of racist commentary.
