The Mystery of the Missing Berries Stinkerton Detective Agency Mysteries - Book Three Someone is stealing the berries. Not all at once - that would be too easy. Just a few each night, quietly, carefully, leaving the patch a little thinner every morning. Enough that nobody noticed at first. Enough that by the time anyone said anything out loud, quite a lot of berries were already gone. Not just any berries. The wild blackberries that have fed the whole village of Berryville for as long as anyone can remember. And the season won't last forever. The village is worried. The jam makers are watching their jars with growing concern. And Jerry Stinkerton - who has very strong personal feelings about blackberries - is not merely on the case. He is extremely on the case. With Kalinda working the village, a certain nose following trails through the undergrowth, and all of Berryville full of theories, suspects, and opinions nobody asked for, Jerry is determined to find the thief before the last berry disappears. This one is personal. The Mystery of the Missing Berries is the third book in the Stinkerton Detective Agency Mysteries - a cozy, funny, warmhearted chapter book series for readers ages 6-10. Perfect for fans of animal adventures, gentle mysteries, and characters who feel like family by the end of the first page.
