Description:
Alex had been found as a baby, in the arms of Sphinx on the Thames Embankment. He'd been famous then, briefly; appearing on television, his photograph in all the papers. Now he was eleven, it was happening to him again and he was miserable about it. Had old Mrs Angel actually been his grandmother? Why was Mum so angry and upset? Might his 'real' parents come and take him away? Alex was in a turmoil, and beginning to feel that the best thing he could now do was to get lost.
