Description
'Agatha Christie for kids' - the third in a detective agency series brimming with mystery and magic by million-copy-selling author, Sally Gardner, and illustrated by acclaimed artist, David Roberts.
The famous detective agency, Wings & Co, has a problem. Really quite a big problem. Well, a few of them actually.
There's the missing giant, Billy Buckle, who has vanished without a trace, and left his giant daughter with the detectives. There's a surprise visit to the seaside, which uncovers a murder and a stolen diamond. And then there's that tricky business of the TV talent show.
Squat on a squid, this is Emily, Buster and Fidget's most complicated case yet!
Includes Wings and Co detective case notes, character profiles and clues.
Previously published under the title THE VANISHING OF BILLY BUCKLE.
