Albert LOVES football. But he HATES the Garden of Doom next door. He’s always kicking his footballs into it, and he can’t go and get them back – Mr Creaky lives next door, and Albert is terrified of him.

But when he kicks his friend Errol’s ball into the Garden of Doom, Albert knows that he has to be brave. Could there be more to Mr Creaky than meets the eye? Could he be a jewel thief? A wizard? A secret agent?

Albert doesn’t know… but he’s about to find out!

The first Early Reader story from a talented and unique voice in children’s fiction. Phil Earle is a CARNEGIE MEDAL shortlisted author whose hard-hitting YA novels have been widely acclaimed.
