A missing dad still alive?
Time to go find him!
Here’s the plan, guys\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grams’ death leaves Freddie and his stepdad all alone their English town, but her final message solves a lifelong mystery – the name of his long-gone biological father!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best pals Ben and Charlie agree to take the train with him to Wales<\/a> as their last fun weekend before they’re dragged off to summer activities that their families love (and they despise).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The eleven year olds’ quick trip turns into an adventurous trek – missed connections, a new destination, an onion-eating contest, a bicycle-built-for-two<\/a>, and emergency change into superhero costumes to elude a jewel thief!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can they keep convincing their parents that they’re just at a sleepover?
Why did Freddie’s dad never try to contact him?
Why didn’t they bring more underwear?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their teacher said it was a miracle that their class made it through the school year, but Freddie, Ben, and Charlie encounter real miracles aplenty in this hilarious debut novel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When does your search become a mission?
