Dinah and her brothers have moved house as their dad's got a new job at the Biogenetic Research Centre. It sounds great, but all three realize something very weird's going on. People in the village talk like robots when the centre is mentioned. There's a mysterious buzzing sound near the
centre, and a creeper that can grow at an incredible speed. And why is the centre surrounded by such scary security guards? When the kids start probing, they soon run into trouble. Dinah finds she herself is part of a terrifying DNA experiment-masterminded by none other than the Demon Headmaster.

From AudioFile:
Gillian Cross is a winner of the Carnegie Medal, the Whitbread Children's Novel Award, and the Smarties Prize.
This latest in Cross's Demon Headmaster series finds the power-hungry headmaster tampering with DNA, trying to create a super race that has high intelligence but no emotion, which to him only causes problems. The intrepid gang of kids must race to beat him at his game and convince the adults of his dastardly scheme. Narrator Bennett's considerable experience working in sound studios makes her an excellent choice for the task of distinguishing among the many young voices, the wily headmaster and his robot-like creation (Bennett's best voice). There are lots of laughs, fun, even a tear or two as well as an excellent moral to be found in this thought-provoking, very modern story. S.G.B. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
