Guilty!

There's been a spate of break-ins lately in the area and everyone in Kate's class is saying that the burglar is Desmond Locke's dad because he's just come out of prison. Everyone, that is, except Kate. She's sure that Mr Locke is innocent and turns to her Secret Seven books for inspiration - they always find the real thief. Kate and Desmond become detectives to find out the truth and prove Desmond's dad is innocent. But the truth isn't always what you would like it to be and Kate is horrified when she discovers who really is... GUILTY.

Reviews

I loved the Jack Stalwart series right from the first book . . . I love it! It's like Anthony Horowitz for the younger reader

—— The Bookseller

This series is the 'must read' of the summer. The books' travel-based themes also make them ideal for holiday reading

—— Jacob Hope , Achuka

The Jack Stalwart books have been a great weapon in the booksellers' armoury for hooking reluctant readers. Now re-launched, they are set to reach a much wider audience of young readers who want a piece of the secret-agent action

—— Publishing News

A gripping and dangerous read that stays in the mind for its chilling reality, the power of the story and the quality of the writing

—— Wendy Cooling , The Bookseller

Don't miss this! It's Keith Gray's best novel to date. Opening with a breathless bag chase, it doesn't let up the momentum for a second

—— Michael Thorn , Achuka

A mystery and adventure book combined

—— Newcastle Evening Chronicle

Hillarious

—— Yorkshire Evening Post

I think this book is the funniest book I've ever read!

—— Evan Jones , South Wales Argus

This book really makes you giggle

—— Brandon Nichols , School Review
