Geyser in the Creek, the second chronicle a generation later opens with an earthquake creating a massive geyser in the creek. This inspires a tourist invasion and exploitation by Bob Rogers and government agencies, opposed by local Maori protecting their land, but Jack Cavanagh just wants to find his missing grandson Jason and friend the ex-stationmaster Rangi Rangihau. A mistreated, pie-pilfering Great Dane is Jack’s best hope, if he can entice it out of hiding. The Listener identified ’a veritable Milkwoodful of characters’, in ’a shaggy sheep tale’ that is ’a bit of a dag’. Daily Telegraph: ’Colourful characters and dialogue add plenty of indigenous flavour to this cleverly crafted tale.’ Marlborough Express: ’Smart pace ... many twists and turns.’ The Kotuku ChroniclesGold in the CreekGeyser in the CreekStamp in the Creek
