Description

When Olympic-champion show jumper Silver Banjo is stolen, Mission Fox is on the case! But are they a match for two cunning horse thieves, a 4-metre-high wall, a locked electronic gate, a pack of watch dogs, an angry magpie and a stampeding horse? Of course they are!


Gadgets, animals and antics abound in this exciting new series.
