Illustrated by
Penny Dann.
A canine sleuth works to rescue "dogkind" from an infestation of giant fleas, unleashed by notorious cat criminal Mad Manx. Lift-the-flap and foldout clues, including maps, letters, and newspaper articles from "The Daily Dig," dress up this good-natured but rather hackneyed doggie detective story, illustrated with expressive images of Secret Agent Barker on the trail.
