'David has to save Horatio Brown from being driven out of his house – and his mind – by a greedy nephew in the fourth book of this junior detective series.
'When David is dragged to a boring council meeting with his dad, he hears that Horatio Brown is selling his property to developers who plan to turn it into a massive tourist site for Milk Bay. Movie theatres, fun parks, shopping centres – cool! But David wonders why Mr Brown is selling up and he finds out that Mr Brown’s nephew is acting on his behalf …it looks like mischief is afoot in Milk Bay once more.' (Publication summary)
