When Jason stumbles across the crumbling ruins of the town's Old Fort during a bike ride, he has to share it with the Falcons. What they find changes everything. From fragments and graves of a history worth fighting for, the Falcons decide that the Old Fort deserves to be saved, and they're just the ones to do it. But the ruins hold more than old secrets. When city criminals begin using the abandoned site for their own shadowy purposes, a mission of discovery becomes something far more urgent. With the unexpected help of a kind old lady who knows more than she lets on, the gang must find the courage to do what's right - help the police and the council to protect the Fort, remove the rubbish, and keep their town's history from falling into the wrong hands. The Old Fort is an adventure story about friendship, bravery, and the surprising things young people can accomplish when they refuse to look away.
This is the second book in the series, continuing the adventures of Jason and the Falcons, released in 2025.
