A Nursery Crime (Jack Spratt Investigates) No. 2

The Gingerbreadman—psychopath, sadist, genius, and killer—is on the loose. But it isn’t Jack Spratt’s case. He and Mary Mary have been demoted to Missing Persons following Jack’s poor judgment involving the poisoning of Mr. Bun the baker. Missing Persons looks like a boring assignment until a chance encounter leads them into the hunt for missing journalist Henrietta “Goldy” Hatchett, star reporter for The Daily Mole. Last to see her alive? The Three Bears, comfortably living out a life of rural solitude in Andersen’s wood.

But all is not what it seems. How could the bears’ porridge be at such disparate temperatures when they were poured at the same time? Why did Mr. and Mrs. Bear sleep in separate beds? Was there a fourth bear? And if there was, who was he, and why did he try to disguise Goldy’s death as a freak accident?

This book accompany a little gift as a surprise for a nice Bookcrosser whom I met before. I saw at your shelf that you have journaled a novel from the author. Perhaps you like to read this one- but feel free to release it anytime.

Dear Raz-Faz, what a lovely suprise! Now my fondu will be perfect! Thank you so much, not one hundred percent sure about the Jasper Fforde, but I will find a new home for it if I don’t read it myself. Fantastic seeing you again at another Convention.

Leaving this in the book box at Paul’s Place, had a lovely evening in this wonderful place! Seems to be a very active book spot!
