In this sequel to How to Catch a Bogle, street urchin Jem hopes to make a living catching child-eating bogles and to get revenge on Sarah Pickles, who betrayed him. Jem discovers that his aims are related: when he finds Sarah, he also finds the source of the bogle proliferation. With plenty of action and colorful Victorian street language, this is a speedy, characterful yarn. Glos.
