When Lottie Baxter discovers that the residents of Alum Bay are behaving VERY strangely — giving away their homes, wandering around like zombies and obeying a man in a lab coat — she knows something terrible is going on.
That man is Timothy Pinkerton.
Scientist. Bully. Villain.
Pinkerton is OBSESSED with one thing: Making gold.
Real gold.
Enough gold to make him a gazillionaire!
He needs the Alum Bay sand for his secret formula. And he’s willing to do anything to get it. Including stealing the entire town!
But Pinkerton has underestimated one thing.
Lottie Baxter.
What starts as a suspicion soon becomes a race against time. Teaming up with her eccentric great-grandad, Cheddar George and armed with a pencil case packed with incredible gadgets, Lottie decides to do something brave, ridiculous and to be honest, a bit dangerous…Stop the evil Timothy Pinkerton before Alum Bay is lost forever.
Fool’s Gold is a laugh-out-loud children’s adventure full of excitement, heart and deliciously wicked fun — perfect for kids who enjoy stories where children outsmart grown-ups and villains get exactly what they deserve.
Ideal for children aged 8–12 who love Roald Dahl and fast-paced children’s mystery adventure stories full of giggles and dastardly deeds!
