Sherlock Bones and the Curse of the Pharaoh's Mask (Adventures of Sherlock Bones #2)

Sherlock Bones, the world's greatest dog detective, and his trusty sidekick Dr. Catson are back for another crime-solving adventure.

This time, the pair are visiting the tombs of the ancient feline kings in Egypt when they discover that a precious mask has been stolen. They have to interview tourists from around the world - including a cowardly lion, a spoiled hippo and two secretive pandas - to discover who is guilty. But the mystery is not as straightforward as it first seems.

It will take the pair on a thrilling adventure deep inside the Egyptian tombs and require all of Bones and Catson's skills to solve the crime. The second book in Buster's brand-new Sherlock Bones fiction series features puzzles - including search games, logical conundrums and shadow matches - that are woven into the action, so the reader feels immersed in the exciting detective plot.

The book is scattered with diagrams, mazes and spot the difference picture puzzles, which all enhance the excitement of the story. . . . This is a good romp of a mystery." —The School Librarian on Sherlock Bones and the Case of the Crown Jewel
