A Puzzle Quest
Everyone loves a good detective story and this series is the cat’s whiskers!
It stars Sherlock Bones, the world’s greatest dog detective, and his trusty sidekick Dr Catson, and in this adventure they are cruising down the Nile. Before you can say, ‘elementary’, as they sightsee in Tutancatmum’s tomb, they discover a crime has taken place and that they’re the suspects. To clear their names, they’ll have to find the real culprits, and quickly.
The set up allows for all sorts of fun, and a fair bit of historical information is slipped in too, while in addition to solving the whodunnit with our furry detectives, readers are given regular puzzles to test their memory and problem-solving skills. Great illustrations too by John Bigwood make this a really appealing package.

Sherlock Bones and the Curse of the Pharaoh's Mask Synopsis
Sherlock Bones, the world's greatest dog detective, and his trusty sidekick Dr Jane Catson are back for another crime-solving adventure.
This time, the pair are visiting the tombs of the ancient feline kings in Egypt when they discover that a precious mask has been stolen. They have to interview tourists from around the world - including a cowardly lion, a spoiled hippo and two secretive pandas - to discover who is guilty.
But the mystery is not as straightforward as it first seems. It will take the pair on a thrilling adventure deep inside the Egyptian tombs and require all of Bones and Catson's skills to solve the crime.
The second book in Buster's brand-new Sherlock Bones fiction series features puzzles - including search games, logical conundrums and shadow matches - that are woven into the action, so the reader feels immersed in the exciting detective plot.
Also available in the series: Sherlock Bones and the Case of the Crown Jewels.
