An exciting, often funny, thriller by the author of "Carrie's War" and "The Peppermint Pig".

There were five of them - which is why they were called a handful of thieves.

Not that they were real theives, of course. They just had to act like theives to catch the sinister Mr Gribble.

Sid had known straight away that there was something odd about Gribble.

He pretended to be just an ordinary lodger, but Sid knew better. Apart from anything else, it wasn't right for a tall, thin man like him to talk with a voice like that!

So when Gribble scarpered with Gran's svings, Sid wasn't surprised. But he was determined to get the money back - even if it did mean the five children had to behave like theives themselves!
