| book description |

Jack is determined to find his missing father. He tracks him down to the seamy side of town and an underworld that has no place in modern society. A second thought-provoking book from this lively new author. A wonderfully original story to follow this authorâ€™s debut as a childrenâ€™s author with Wipe Out. As in Wipe Out, the book follows a child through a difficult journey but humour and hope spreads through the novel, giving it that feel-good factor at the end. Jack decides to track down his father when his mother announces she is to re-marry. Jack is a bit of a geek â€“ heâ€™s a whizz-kid into nutritional values of food and goes to a school for gifted children. Itâ€™s this that introduces the element of humour to the novel, through his friendships at school with other equally gifted kids. During Jackâ€™s search, he befriends a homeless Big Issue seller, plus dog, and a Black soul singer and soul music is a feature of the novel. The two men try to dissuade Jack from finding his father, since they know he lives with the a â€˜no-good bunch of hobosâ€™ who live on the streets, funded by crime and even child abuse. Written in Mimi Theboâ€™s distinctive voice, this second novel is sure to attract attention.
