Description: The final book in Victor Canning's classic children's trilogy of life-affirming adventures. Freckled fugitive 'Smiler' finds his way to the farm of the "The Duchess" in North Devon, where he stays and tends to circus animals housed there for the winter. When a peregrine falcon, Fria, escapes, Smiler must search for ways of helping and recapturing the bird. In doing so, can he find solutions for the problem that has kept him in hiding from the police for so long? Or does more trouble await? AUTHOR: Victor Canning was a prolific writer throughout his career, which began young: he had sold several short stories by the age of nineteen and his first novel, Mr Finchley Discovers His England (1934) was published when he was twenty-three. It proved to be a runaway bestseller. Canning also wrote for children: his trilogy The Runaways was adapted for US children's television.
