About This Item
London: Hodder & Stoughton, 2006. 2nd Edition. Hardcover. Very good cloth copy in a good if somewhat edge-nicked and dust-dulled dust wrapper, now mylar-sleeved. Remains quite well-preserved overall. Physical description: 383 pages; 24 cm. Summary: It isn't Jack Spratt's case. Despite the success of the Humpty Dumpty investigation, their well publicised failure to prevent Red Riding Hood and her gran being eaten once again plunges the Nursery Crime Division into controversy. Enforced non-involvement with the Gingerbreadman hunt looks to be frustrating until a chance encounter at the oddly familiar Deja-Vu club leads them onto the hunt for missing journalist Henrietta 'Goldy' Hatchett, star reporter for The Daily Toad. Subjects: Nursery rhymes; Adaptations.Nursery rhymes. Detective and mystery stories. Children's fiction. Genre:Adaptations. Detective and mystery fiction.
