Synopsis: Synopsis:

Aussie teenager Bumduggle (Barry) Davis just can't seem to get it together after his mum dies suddenly in a tragic accident. Before the young teen has time to grieve, he's flung in at the deep end, solving other people's problems.

Realising that her son is in over his head, Barry's mother hangs around in spirit, popping up at odd times to offer advice.

First it's The BoobRats, a gang of girls at school, who all need Barry's help. Next his brother, Evan, begins to act weirdly. Then there's Cheryl, his dad's new girlfriend. Barry doesn't like her because he thinks she wants to replace his mum.

Finally, there's Truong, a Vietnamese boy at school, whose dad refuses to pay protection money to an Asian gang. Truong and Barry are kidnapped by some bumbling Asian gang members. Throughout his troubles, Barry worries that once he starts to cope better, his mum will fade away.

The action is fast and frantic in the exciting new novel Bumduggle Davis Beats the BoobRats.
