Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Puffin.

Rex's parents have split up, he's about to make the daunting move to secondary school and to make matters worse, he has to spend his summer holiday on a remote and rainy Irish island - with lots of unruly sheep for company.

The only upside: he'll be staying with his strange and brilliant uncle, Derm.

Then Rex discovers Uncle Derm is about to execute his most hair-brained plan yet - to rob the island's travelling bank!

Like the local legend of medieval pirate queen Grace O'Malley, Uncle Derm plans to redistribute the money to local needy causes on the island.

And he needs Rex's help.

A madcap robbery, plenty of sheep and a summer of discoveries come together in this hilarious and moving novel, perfect for fans of Frank Cottrell Boyce, Ross Welford and David Walliams.

Hilarious, Adventurous and touching book

I really enjoyed listening to this book. It made me laugh, and was really exciting. Really sad Uncle Derm died though🥺. Recommend to all comic, adventure and heart-touching story lovers.
