Book Two in the Abbott Street Adventures trilogy, Catch Those Robbers, continues the adventures of Lisa, Jane, and Sam as they uncover a plot involving stolen machines and the dangerous new craze of HEBY bands. They must act fast before the robbers strike again.

With time running out, Lisa, Jane, Sam, Mr Madden and Mr Parker must track the robbers before the secret of the portal is exposed forever. Their race takes them from Brisbane's leafy streets to the historic city of Bath, where courage, friendship, science and quick thinking are tested at every turn.

Along the way they encounter hidden cameras, daring stakeouts, narrow escapes and an unforgettable showdown beneath the Grand Tree.

Blending mystery, adventure, humour and a touch of science fiction with real locations in Brisbane and England, Catch Those Robbers explores the power of friendship, loyalty, responsibility and doing what is right - even when the choices are difficult.

Perfect for readers aged 8-11, this fast-paced sequel continues the magical world of the Abbott Street Adventures trilogy, where Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, damaged trees, and an extraordinary scientific discovery combine to create an adventure unlike any other.

Will the robbers succeed... or can Lisa and her friends stop them before it's too late?

About the Author

I grew up in England and moved to Australia in the early 1970s as one of the 'Ten Pound Poms'. Though Brisbane is now home, I've returned to England many times and each time, I make sure I visit a park, a woodland, or a forest. Here in Brisbane, I often walk through New Farm Park, and my favourite path is down Abbott Street, where a majestic row of camphor laurel trees arch overhead. One day, I noticed a pair of workmen's boots sitting at the base of the Grand Tree that stood at the end of Abbott Street. Something about it made me pause. What if a workman had been resting there, eating lunch with his boots off to cool his feet... and then vanished? That moment lit a spark - and the story began.Fuelled by a deep love of nature, music, mystery, and the idea that energy might hold more secrets than we realise, I began writing my debut novel, Abbott Street Adventures: Hide and Seek.What began as a single story, soon grew into a trilogy. Each book can be enjoyed on its own, however the friendships and themes woven through Books Two and Three, deepen the mystery along the way.
