Meet RORY BRANAGAN – he eats bad guys for breakfast. Well, not ACTUALLY. But he IS the best detective in town. Fifth in a hilarious comedy-crime series for readers of 8+.

Hello. I am Rory Branagan. I am actually a detective. Me and Cat are at the most AWESOME event ever – Car Bonanza, where people are doing epic car stunts, jumping out of planes and breaking world records. It is amazing. But then one of the stunts goes TERRIBLY WRONG. But was it really an accident, or did someone meddle with the car?! It’s a good job me and the Cat are here, because this is a CRIME, and it needs to be solved… There are seven books in the RORY BRANAGAN (DETECTIVE) series and this is the fifth.

This book is about a ten-year-old boy and a dog who go on a race in honour of Rory's uncle, who dies at the start of the race .Then they hijack a plane and fall off, only to land on a trampoline. Then they find the muderer and put her in prison.

I liked this book most when Rory caught the culprit but I'm not gonna tell you because then I'd spoil it for you. I liked Rory best. Yes I would recommend this book.

Easy reading but not gripping, and the solution to the crime was conveniently solved. Probably more suitable for a younger age group.

I like the part when they got risen out of the plane and they pushed one another out of the plane. I quite liked everything really!

I thought about this book is that it is adventurous. It is fiction. It interested me because it is adventurous and they solve crimes. I would recommend it.

It was cool because I like Rory, Cat and Wilkins. I like the way the characters tried to find out who killed Kenny.

I liked this book because there was lots of action, and lots of stuff going on at the exact same time. My favourite character was the sausage dog. I would recommend it to friends.
