But when Jack's parents' car is hi-jacked, with him inside it, for once he's as clueless as the rest of us. The car-jacker doesn't know Jack's in the car, yet. But it's only a matter of time before he's discovered. And then, anything could happen. Only one thing's for sure: Jack's in for the thrill-ride of his life. A high-octane adventure from the winner of the Blue Peter Book of the Year Award. Ages: 9+
