“\u2018Why shouldn\u2019t we be detectives too?\u2019<\/p>\n

When Dick and Dorothea arrive in the Norfolk Broads all set for a blissful summer on the river, they find their friends the Death and Glories in a very bad situation. Accused of setting boats adrift, sabotage and theft, the boys are under suspicion by everyone on the river. And in the meantime, the real culprits are still at large. There\u2019s no choice but to form a crime-busting team: The Big Six. As the evidence stacks against them, can they solve the mystery and trap the real criminals?<\/p>\n

Includes exclusive material: In \u2018The Backstory\u2019 find out about birds, boats and fish and put your own detective skills to the test!<\/p>\n
