The Good Turn

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Three friends form their own scout group, embark on an extraordinary adventure and learn that anyone can make a difference in this real-world story with big themes for fans of Murder Most Unladylike and The Boy at the Back of the Class.

Josephine Williams is definitely a leader - and her teachers know it! What other eleven-year-old is desperate for MORE schoolwork?

Looking for more challenging tasks, Josie enlists her friends Wesley and Margot into her very own Scout troop, the Copseys, named after the street they all live on. Together they start their quest for their camping badge by sleeping out near to the abandoned factory behind their houses.

But that night they stumble across something strange. Someone seems to be living in the derelict building! The Copseys have to solve the mystery...and perhaps earn their bravery and activism badges along the way...

Perfect for readers who love Robin Stevens and Katherine Woodfine, and full of fast-paced adventure, brilliant characters and snappy dialogue with themes of real-life activism and how to help others.
