Detective Donovan Tackles a ‘Three Pronged’ Mystery

About the Book

Suddenly in the rather sleepy small city of Slidetown there occur in rapid succession three major "happenings", all of a very suspicious nature. Failing in his effort to solve these cases, the Chief of Police seeks the help of a "high powered" detective from New York City. The detective offers two weeks of his time in which to solve the three cases. Using an odd method in endeavoring to find the solution, he almost succeeds only to realize that the two weeks he allotted to these three cases is fast slipping by. He begins to despair of finding the solution within the time frame when suddenly from a most unlikely source he finds the solution to all three mysterious cases.
