Dean Lambert is trying to conquer his vertigo – but he’s beginning to feel like he’ll never jump from the high diving board he’s nicknamed the Horror of the Heights. It doesn’t help that his brother, Tim, is a championship diver, and his dad runs the Wave Crest Leisure Centre. His dad and brother are caught up in preparations for the leisure centre’s upcoming diving championships. But then disaster strikes when the diving board collapses and Tim only just escapes being seriously injured. What’s more, it appears the board has been sabotaged. Dean sets out to find the culprit – but will he catch them in time?

The only part I didn't like was the part when they chase someone

this book is the most interesting book I have read. the book is about a boy called Dean and he tries to jump of the horror of heights but he is scared of heights so his brother shows him jumping of the diving board but the board broke hurting Dean's brother. they inspect it and a bolt is loose. next day there is a school pool party but man's son scrapes his arm so they inspect it again and broken plastic poking out. they then suspect sabotage by Maggie, his friend, because her father was dead so she tried to kill his father because she hated Dean's dad so much.
