The track is steep and nothing but potholes and ditches. The boys are puzzled by bare earth and stacks of cut-down trees. A sweaty man falls off his bike to avoid crashing into them. What is going on? <em>What happens to Ali and Hamish's forest bike ride?</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Noah invites Robbie and Kevin camping, but Robbie takes charge. Before hiking to a mysterious hut, they're warned to stay on the track and beware of Bold Jack Blunder. Exploring near the hut, something chases the boys across the paddock. They run. <em>Who is Bold Jack Blunder, and where did the boys find themselves?</em></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Gussy hopes staying with her grandparents at their sheep station would be fun, but she's bored. She finds the bottle collection, but there aren't any treasures. Exasperated, she picks up a bottle and lands at an unusual shop. Bleeding knees tell her it wasn't a dream.
