Agent Z Goes Wild

by Mark Haddon

Published 21 July 1994
The second Agent Z novel. Saved from the horrendous fate of two weeks with Mum, Dad and mad Aunt Gwen, Ben and the Z gang are going to the Plas-y-Cyfoglyn Outward Bound Centre. As well as abseiling, rock-climbing and orienteering, the three of them are involved in further hilarious adventures.

This is the third in the Agent Z series. Ben's family are pretty odd, but they're not a patch on the Sidebottoms who have just moved in next door. Ben, Barney and Jenks reckon that the Sidebottoms need taking down a peg or two.

Ben's a born daydreamer. He's much rather be in the Sahara, or on a Viking ship than sitting in a boring maths lesson. Then Agent Z appears on the scene - and THAT means secret missions, cunning plans and careful strategies. And soon Ben and his friends, Barney and Jenks, realize that life on planet earth is RATHER exciting after all!
