You might have heard how the universe began with the Big Bang?Well, the universe as Jim Wimple knows it is about to end. But when the boys break into the Mallet & Mullet 'accountancy' office they find that the walls are lined with ancient portraits, the staff are highly secretive, and Jim's dad's office bears the sign 'G Reaper'.

Is Jim's dad hiding a deadly secret?

Jim Wimple needs a Bazoom! scooter, and fast. Not only are they super speedy and mega cool, but the awesome Fiona has just started riding hers to and from school, and possibly out of Jim's life forever. Disaster!

So Jim and his best friend Will devise a clever plan to get a Bazoom!, which involves sneaking into Dad's workplace. It shouldn't be hard - Terry Wimple is just a boring old accountant . . . isn't he?

This is a great book, because it is sooooooooo funny and it has a great concept and plot. It is full of mystery, and will definitely make it high on my end of year list!
