Book description
A cunning disguise.
Some stinky seaweed.
And a dastardly villain on the loose . . . sounds like another case for
Wilma Tenderfoot!
Wilma Tenderfoot, the feisty and determined assistant to the greatest
living detective, Theodore P. Goodman, is faced with a peculiar, and
pongy, case to crack. Cooper Island's vaudeville theatre becomes centre
stage for a murderous menace, as one by one the actors are fatally
poisoned. Can Wilma, along with her faithful hound and dazzling dancing
partner, Pickle, discover the fiend's identity . . . before the final
curtain falls for Wilma herself? Emma Kennedy writes things for the
radio and the tellybox. She also does some dressing up and pretending to
be other people on TV. Sometimes she wins prizes for these things, but
her greatest achievement EVER was being the Runner-Up World Conker
Champion. She would have won, but was let down by a soft nut. There are
two things she would like to do before she dies. 1. She would like to
fly a hot-air balloon. Proper fly it, not just stare out of it like a
lemon. And 2. Grow wings. That's it. She has a most excellent beagle
called Poppy, who can walk like a crab. Emma’s favourite word is
ramalamadingdong.
