The final book in a young middle grade mystery-adventure series about Horace, an anxious Boston Terrier, and Bunwinkle, an exuberant potbellied pig, who team up to solve crimes in their barnyard and neighborhood.
In this third mystery, the pet-tective duo must solve a series of crimes at the local Renaissance Faire. Perfect for fans of Mercy Watson, The Trouble with Chickens, and A Boy Called Bat!
Life is never quiet at the Homestead. First, it was disappearing animals, then a power-hungry dairy queen. Now itās a Renaissance Faire, a noisy, stinky spectacle that drives Horace to distraction. Bunwinkle, on the other hand, canāt get enough of the festivitiesāshe loves the thrilling jousts, the court intrigueā¦and especially the pickles on a stick.
But when Eleanor and Claryās ice cream buckets are stolen and several of the food stalls are vandalized, itās clear that thereās something fishy going on at the faire. And suddenly the pet-tectives find themselves with a new case on their hands.
One thingās for certain: Thereās no shortage of suspects. From Wendell, the nosy vegetable vendor, to Dean, the alpaca farmer whoās been getting a bit too close to Eleanor, to Uta Hawken, a Shakespeare-spouting red-tailed hawk, the culprit could be anyone.
Can the pet-tectives solve this royally tough case before the faire is ruinedā¦or worse?
