Breaking crazy kidnapping schemes seem to be Hercules’ forte and he’s eager to show he’s worthy of continuing to be a four-legged partner to Private Investigator Bertha Kowolski. This latest case is a lot more exciting than sitting in flower beds with a radio collar on, listening to the moans and groans coming through open windows! Now he’s literally up to his leg-pits in a collection of little yellow ducks. They keep popping up in the wake of a cat burglar dubbed Duck Man, who is terrorizing parents as he threatens kidnap of their children. On his first case with the buxom lady he calls ‘Big Gal’, she gave Hercules a mighty name to live up to and he likes being a Dog P.I. The canine is eager to relate this tale, containing a couple of surprise twists, from his close-to-the-ground perspective.
Suitable for family reading or for young adults and older.
