Dastardly villains, car chases and stormy sea peril, followed by afternoon tea at the Hotel Splendide: it’s the perfect summer read.
Available in bookshops on July the 31st, or you can pre-order.
There’s also @RHKidsUK‘s marvellous #WheresDixie twitter competition, following Dixie and Percy’s motoring jaunts around town and guessing from the snaps where they have popped up next. A really nice thing to do with the kids after school!

It will be lovely lolly-lickingly bunny fun – join us if you can!
(watching the Tour de France, I did wonder if some of the same features could be adapted to an author tour – could spectators be on hand with orange slices and refreshing drinks as I rush past?)
