The prominence of Susie continues in Good Old Secret Seven. Jack's uncle Bob gives him a telescope, but he is told to share it with Susie. Jack wants the society to share it and thinks the shed is the best place to keep it so they can all use it. This is not fair on Susie though, as the telescope was meant for both of them to share.

Load shedding at 6:00 am, so I read [b:Good Old Secret Seven|124694|Good Old Secret Seven (The Secret Seven, #12)|Enid Blyton|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1631425092l/124694.SY75.jpg|1598980], and finished it in an hour and a half before load shedding ended. I'd read a few of the Secret Seven books, but even as a child had not been very impressed with them. My main memory of them was the children's encounter with the village policeman who kept telling them to "Clear orf", but he didn't appear in this one. And the only one who seemed to have any character was Susie, the villain of the sub-plot, and she was far more interesting than the rest of them put together.
