He’s only 8¾, mad about football, and, as it turns out, quite a fan of cheesecake too – especially the football-shaped kind. But when a crash of thunder wakes him from a delicious dream, he stumbles into a real-life mystery that’s bigger than a double-decker bus. Just across the road, the Famous Cup – a battered, brass trophy that’s been kicked, dropped, and chucked around by football legends for over a century – has gone missing. And when the building’s wacky caretaker, Mrs Amber, refuses to call the police, Charlie finds himself right in the middle of the investigation. Armed with nothing but an instant camera and his sharp eye, Charlie has to figure out who swiped the trophy. Could it be the long-haired man in the soggy coat mumbling about soup? The fancy lady with the fur coat and a Rottweiler named Patricia? Or the peg-legged cowboy singing a strange tune? With time ticking down to the cup final, Charlie and Mrs Amber hatch a bonkers plan to catch the crooks – involving talent shows, secret clues, and possibly the weirdest competition England has ever seen. Can Charlie crack the case, outsmart the suspects, and save the cup? Or will this young detective end up in more trouble than a goalie without gloves? Grab your boots, lace them up tight, and get ready for a mystery that kicks off in the most unexpected way. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
