Lutterworth, 1975, illus Gordon King
The blurb:
“Jo and her friend Joe are looking forward to all the riding they will get in the holidays on her uncle’s Highland sheep farm, and to the local show which includes a gymkhana. And then along comes her strange Canadian cousin, Chris, to sneer at them and apparently to stay for ever. As if there were not enough disturbance from him, there is a gang of payroll robbers supposed to be in the neighbourhood and everyone has to take spacial precautions. All in all it’s a marvel that they come to take part, in no small way, in the paratroops’ manoeuvres …”
