THE HO HO HO MYSTERY
Book ID/图书代码: 14934110B35569
English Summary/英文概要: Things are finally looking up for Harry Pigg, detective and sole survivor of the Three Little Pigs fiasco. He’s just solved his first big case, acquired – despite his best efforts to the contrary - two new junior detectives in the Genie of the Lamp and Jack Horner and seems to have enough money to finally get his business up and running properly. Now all he needs is a new client.
Enter a large, red-dressed and very angry woman named Mrs. Claus who claims her husband, Santa, has been kidnapped two days before Christmas. Against his better judgment Harry takes on the case, believing that Mrs. Claus is either having him on or that Santa has run off with another woman and will turn up sooner or later, full of apologies.
Finding no clues locally, Harry and Mrs. Claus take a trip to the North Pole so Harry can continue his investigations there. On the way they are attacked by a jet-powered sleigh and barely escape... The attempt on their lives leads Harry to believe that there may be some substance to Mrs. Claus’ story after all.
At the North Pole, Harry interviews a very arrogant Rudolph and all of Santa’s Little Helpers. When one of the elves tries to make a break for it, it leads to a hair-raising jet-ski chase across the snow. Just when Harry has the elf in his grasp, he is rescued by a flying sleigh – possibly even the one that had tried to kill Harry earlier. Despondent at the lack of any clues Harry heads back to base where he’s told that Santa’s sleigh has been found abandoned north of Grimmtown…
