Synopsis

Written for middle grade boys and girls, this adventure takes Jason to a new home and school and introduces him to his new friends, The Falcons - a group of Scouts.

When Jason's family moves to the small town of Kennedy, he's uncertain about leaving city life behind. But as he joins the local Scout club and makes new friends, he's drawn into unexpected adventures - from helping solve local robberies to uncovering hidden town secrets. A chance encounter with the remains of a legendary bushranger brings him both local fame and a sense of belonging, making Kennedy feel like home in ways he never anticipated.
