Young Ben Foster is not happy. He’s due to spend his summer holidays at his grandparent’s house. His boring, old-fashioned grandparents who don’t even have wi-fi. But when Ben knocks on their front door, he finds his grandparents have disappeared. In fact, most of the pensioners on the street have vanished.
When space and time-travelling adventuress, Quality Times, and her associate, Tim, encounter a distressed Ben, they decide to investigate the disappearances.
Where have the elderly folk gone to? What has it got to do with the new bus company that’s started up in the town?
With the help of Quality's gran, plus a member of the Neighbourhood Watch, they're going to find out.
