Publisher's Synopsis

Thunderbolt, Benny, Bridie and Sharky Bob are a mixed bunch of vagabonds and urchins who come together to form the New Cut Gang in two comic tales of stolen silver, skulduggery and desperadoes.

Fake coins are turning up all over Lambeth and the finger of suspicion is pointing at Thunderbolt's dad - could he really be the forger? The crime-busting New Cut Gang come to the rescue!

And when just two clues - a blob of wax and a Swedish match - are discovered at the scene of a break-in, the children find themselves on the trail of an extremely cunning criminal.

Set in late Victorian London, these two action-packed thrillers have now been put together in a single volume - with new illustrations throughout from Horrible Histories illustrator, Martin Brown.

About the Publisher

David Fickling Books

We're new - but we've been around for a while! For nearly twelve years DFB has been run as an imprint - first as part of Scholastic, then of Random House. Now we've set up as an independent business - joining our separate but sister company, which publishes the new children's comic The Phoenix, to form a DFB Storyhouse. Exciting times!
