Damian Drooth, the one of a kind, clean-up-the world hero, has arrived. Criminals beware - and be very afraid!
In his first case, Damian finds himself in the glamorous world of filmmaking. But it turns out to be a den of deceit. Damian needs all his mind-boggling skills to keep himself out of trouble and to rescue Trixibelle, the daughter of a crazy, mega-rich director.
Packed with rib-tickling pictures from Tony Ross, this is perfect for newly confident young readers of 6 and up!
