Description
The first laugh-out-loud, twisty mystery for young readers by amazing actress and dementia campaigner, Vicky McClure. 10 year old Jase is spending the summer holidays at the Castle Rock caravan park with his auntie and grandma, who has dementia. Expecting to be totally bored, he meets three other curious, brave, funny kids and together they solve the mystery of a series of thefts happening across the site. The finger of blame has started pointing at the children - they must find the true culprit to clear their names and see justice done! A warm-hearted, everyone's-welcome, wonderfully plotted and page-turning mystery with an authentic, kind depiction of a relative with dementia at its heart. A mystery story that's a modern-day Secret Seven for fans of Tom Fletcher's The Danger Gang and Marcus Rashford's The Breakfast Club Adventures. The brilliant best mates chemistry of classic movie Stand By Me Warm, witty, cleverly plotted storytelling - kids will love following the clues to catch the culprit! Vicky's story written in collaboration with Kim Curran.
