| Description: |
A hilarious tale of bravery and evil, set in Victorian London and told partly in strip-cartoon form. Three orphaned children are being pursued by the evil Mack the Knife, but Spring-heeled Jack is hot on his trail. The author's other books include "How to be Cool" and "The Ruby in the Smoke". |
| Synopsis: |
Deep in the murkiest back streets of old London town, three children are escaping from an orphanage. But lurking in the fog, watching Rose, Lily and Ned, is a king among villains - Mack the Knife! A dreadful fate looks certain until, from out of nowhere, a figure with glowing, red eyes appears. He leaps through the air like a firework - it's Spring-Heeled Jack, scourge of evil-doers! |
