Operation Weasel Ball

Starring Antonia Cutlass

Budding investigative reporter Antonia Cutlass isn't happy.

When a school project leads to a surprising discovery inside a weasel ball, Ant thinks she is onto the scoop of the century. But someone else knows what Ant has discovered and they are willing to do just about anything to get their property back.

Ant has to quickly unravel the mystery of Operation Weasel Ball - but who can she trust? It seems like everyone is in on the heist - even her mum!

With the help of a rubber octopus, a handful of stinky prawns and an unsuspecting health inspector, Ant sets out to close the doors of Clams & Cutlasses for good. But just how far is Ant willing to go to avoid total credibility breakdown?

Will Gutless Cutlass follow through? Will it end in disaster? And who will really walk the plank?
