An explosive, highly-charged and hilarious adventure from Mark Haddon, acclaimed author of THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME for readers 9 to 90. rom the moment that Jim and his best friend Charlie bug the staffroom and overhear two of their teachers speaking to each other in a secret language, they know there s an adventure on its way. ut what does spudvetch mean, and why do Mr Kidd s eyes flicker with fluorescent blue light when Charlie says it to him? Perhaps Kidd and Pearce are bank robbers talking in code. Perhaps they re spies. Perhaps they re aliens. Whatever they are, Jimbo and Charlie are determined to find out. here really is an adventure on its way. A nuclear-powered, one hundred-ton adventure with reclining seats and a buffet car.

It has now been completely re-written (Mark has changed pretty much every sentence one way or another) and given a new title that is much easier to pronounce!
