Book details
Tracy Traynor - Author
A lively friendship-and-mystery adventure, combining a group’s summer schemes with a ghost story and questions about hidden knowledge.
The boys are planning a big summer. When they're not hanging out in their den, running the streets, playing fitba or re-enacting battles, they're planning to break into the old Hampden Park stadium - is there enough time for it all? Midge's pals are cool - Bru's ginger; Skooshie's crazy; Hector's brave and Lemur, well, there's something weird about Lemur. He knows too much. Like, he tells them a ghost story about two tragic deaths that happened over a hundred years ago. When did Lemur learn so much about the past?

Midge spends the summer with Bru, Skooshie, Hector and Lemur, whose described personalities differ markedly.
The boys plan to break into the old Hampden Park stadium during their summer activities.
Lemur tells the group about two tragic deaths from over a hundred years ago and seems to know unusually much about the past.
The planned break-in, battle re-enactments, ghost story and reference to two tragic deaths may merit a check-in.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
