  The White-Bone Demon repeatedly took the appearance of a human to deceive Xuanzang. The monkey saw through the trick and killed the demon, but Xuanzang, unaware about the demon's true identity, got angry about the killing and sent the monkey away. Xuanzang then mistakenly met the Yellow-Robe Demon and was rescued by the third princess of the Baoxiang Kingdom. The demon morphed into a handsome man, went to the Baoxiang Kingdom, and transformed Xuanzang into a tiger. Xuanzang's horse failed to rescue his master and told Pigsy to ask the monkey back to help. The monkey returned and fought the demon. He assumed it was a god of Heaven, so he rushed to Heaven to complain to the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor ordered the Heavenly Master to find out who it was. They discovered that it was Kuixing, who had sneaked down to the earthly world, and recalled him back to Heaven. The monkey sent the princess back to the Baoxiang Kingdom and broke the demon's spell on Xuanzang. Xuanzang and the monkey reconciled.

  The Boss is back… And he’s brought his Big Brother with him!   
  With his hidden microphones and numbered gang members, a devious criminal mastermind known only as “the Boss” has broken out of prison and has been working behind the scenes to topple the financial institutions of the world.  
    
  His plan appears to have something to do with computers. And, possibly, potatoes.  
   
  In any case, it’s up to super sleuth Agaton Sax - along with Aunt Matilda and the long-suffering Inspector Lispington - to stop them in their tracks…   
  If they can.  
   
  The Agaton Sax series of books were first published in Sweden, later being translated into English and printed with illustrations by much-loved artist Quentin Blake (perhaps best known for his work on the books of Roald Dahl). The English translations became immensely popular, achieving the status of the most re-issued mystery & detective series in the history of Nordic children's literature.   
  Now, for the first time, Oak Tree Books is proud to publish the entire Agaton Sax series in audio format, newly translated for the next generation and expertly narrated by Barnaby Eaton-Jones.
