The Fourth Bear: A Nursery Crime (Jack Spratt Investigates)

The Fourth Bear: A Nursery Crime (Jack Spratt Investigates)

The inimitable Jasper Fforde gives readers another delightful mash-up of detective fiction and nursery rhyme, returning to those mean streets where no character is innocent. The Gingerbreadmanâ€”sadist, psychopath, cookieâ€”is on the loose in Reading, but thatâ€™s not who Detective Jack Spratt and Sergeant Mary Mary are after. Instead, theyâ€™ve been demoted to searching for missing journalist â€œGoldyâ€ Hatchett. The last witnesses to see her alive were the reclusive Three Bears, and right away Spratt senses something furryâ€”uh, funnyâ€”about their story, starting with the porridge. The Fourth Bear is a delirious new romp from our most irrepressible fabulist.
