A group of friends links forces to take on the town's bullies in this boisterous story for junior readers. 'Die you scumbags!' Adam cried, immediately swinging into action with the double-barrelled, pump action water cannon. Finn heard the throaty growl of the V8 before Adam saw the car approaching. 'Ad!' he called urgently. 'Don't do it.' But Adam does do it - and that's the start of real trouble.

Adam and Finn lie low, but their hideout is discovered by Kim, Tara and Robbie. Together they form The Dare Club; taking outrageous risks and stirring up Ivan and his motley crew. As disaster looms, the unlikely gang uncover secrets about one another - secrets that will either split them up or give them strength for their final test, a confrontation with Ivan's gang.With a cast of zany kids The Dare Club is a bubbly, boisterous story that'll rock the socks of those who dare!
