Robbie and his brother Jim find an old car up at Grange Farm. It's abandoned during the week, so soon they are regular joyriders. It's great fun, but then they are witnesses to what definitely looks like criminal activity. They are faced with a dilemma: should they report what they have found and reveal their joyriding, or keep quiet? Part of the Fresh Shades series, this is a shorter version of the original book. The Sharp Shades stories are illustrated and have simpler language and a larger font than the original book. They are perfect for older readers who may find longer books too daunting, but who still want the excitement of a great story told with pace and style.
