Description

The inimitable Jasper Fforde provides visitors another pleasant mash up of detective fiction and nursery rhyme, time for these mean streets where no figure is harmless. The Gingerbreadman-sadist, psychopath, dessert-is on the loose in Reading, but that isn't who Investigator Jack Spratt and Sergeant Mary Mary are after. Alternatively, they have been demoted to trying to find lost correspondent "Goldy" Hatchett. The final witnesses to observe her living were the reclusive Three Bears, and Spratt feels anything fuzzy-uh, humorous-about their tale, beginning with the porridge immediately.
