Publisher's Note
Chet Gecko loves a good mystery. Almost more than he loves his fee--stinkbug pie. So when fellow fourth grader Shirley Chameleon asks him to find her missing brother, Billy, Chet expects the case to be as easy a pie. But Billy's disappearance is part of a larger plot, one that involves the Rat Sisters, a riddling junkyard dog, and a vicious Gila monster named Herman. If Chet doesn't solve the case fast, the entire school could be humiliated. Worst of all, Chet might not get his fee. And Chet's hungry. . . .
Industry reviews
"The combination of school details, animal classmates, and homage to Raymond Chandler is glib but broadly and sustainedly humorous; Hale capably plays the elements against one another to increase the amusement value." Stevenson "This fast-paced short novel will have kids clamoring to read all 97 pages--probably in one sitting!" New York Daily News - Kendal A. Rautzhan (07/30/2000)
