Jack Heath was first published at the age of 18. He's 25 now.
When he's not writing or web-designing, Jack is performing street magic, composing film music, teaching or lecturing at schools and festivals, or playing a variety of instruments including the piano and the bass guitar. He stoically ignores his lack of qualifications or training in any of these areas.
This book is all action, and packed with ingenious ideas to help Ash escape one predicament after another as all their carefully made plans go awry.
