Australia – the land of surfing, sharks and the Red Jelly Gang, a ruthless band of crooks who have taken over the Sydney Opera House.
Tim and his parents have gone to a wedding in Italy and Grk is in a kennel – it might be called Cuddle Kennels but Grk finds nothing cuddly about it! He wants proper food not what they serve here and so he’s off…
Somehow, Tim will have to travel halfway around the planet, rescue his beloved dog and outwit the most wicked villains in the Southern Hemisphere.
Inspired by several novels such as The Wind in the Moon by Eric Linklater, the Prisoner of Zenda, the Silver Sword by Ian Serraillier which was one of the authors favourite books as a child according to the Guardian podcast we heard!
