Fortunately, Fox still has his great friends Lewis, Hugo and Paige on his side, as well his brother Chase and a pet rabbit called Gary, and they are all determined to make sure the Diggers prevail.Fox needs to be on his guard, as Mace and his sidekick Vince will try to bring him down at every turn. Can he overcome detentions and dirty tricks to lead the Diggers to an unlikely premiership? Find out in Fox Swift takes on The Unbeatables.' (Publication summary)
