A Sunday Times Children's Book of the Week
Freddie Yates likes facts. Just not the one staring him in the face - that his secret plan is not, in fact, secret.
Because Freddie's journey wasn't meant to involve Big Trev and the onion-eating competition or the loo-exploding pear-and-potato turnovers. And Freddie definitely didn't expect to end up, with his two best friends, on national television in a supergirl costume.
But journeys never take you where you think they will. And for Freddie, that fact might just have to be enough...

"A big-hearted comic journey about friendship, family, and a miraculously well-timed seagull." — David Solomons, author of My Brother is a Superhero
"This sleuthing-trip-cum-crime-solving spree has all the fizz of Jeremy Strong." — The Observer
