Contents

  • A marvellous mechanic, a brilliant story-teller, a genius at kites, Danny thinks his is the most marvellous and exciting father any boy ever had. He looked after him as a baby when his mother died and brought him up in the old gypsy caravan parked behind their own filling-station. When Danny is nine he discovers that his father has a deep, dark secret that leads them on a dangerous and thrilling adventure.
