(2) 1-3 Translated by Julia Marshall. Illustrated by Gitte Spee. Things have changed in the cozy forest police station since Detective Gordon: A Complicated Case. With Detective Gordon (toad) experimenting with retirement, Buffy (mouse) is acting as chief detective. Gordon finds his life lacks purpose; Buffy misses Gordon's company. Both are too proud to admit their needs until a crisis (two missing kindergartners) brings them together. The tone here is understatedly hilarious, with built-in nuttiness and absurdity.
