The Far From Great Escape: Philip Ardagh
As Beardy Ardagh reports, when the local lighthouse is plunged into darkness and a ship runs aground - flattening The Rusty Dolphin - it’s hard to imagine things can get much worse in Grubtown.
But then there’s a jailbreak and the Police Department (all three of them) needs all the help it can get from the (often bonkers) townsfolk. No wonder more trouble is waiting just around the corner.
