Description

The first in a series of irresistibly charming, beautifully illustrated children's classics - the adventures of Detective Nosegoode and his talking dog, CodyThe famous detective Ambrosius Nosegoode is enjoying a quiet retirement in his cottage in the lazy town of Lower Limewood, along with his faithful dog Cody, who is remarkable in many ways - not least that he can talk!But soon the peace is disturbed by a mysterious crime - Mr Swallowtail's music box has been stolen from Ignatius Blossom's workshop.

Detective Nosegoode is called in to investigate, and Cody is determined to help him sniff out the solution to this puzzle.

What is the secret of the music box, and who stole it?

Could it be the mysterious stranger, Blackbeard? And, most importantly, when will Cody get his dinner?This charmingly illustrated classic of children's literature is the first in the Detective Nosegoode series. Marian Orlon (1932-1990) worked as a teacher, and then a librarian while pursuing an extremely successful career as a children's writer.

His subtle sense of humour and exciting plots made the stories in his Detective Nosegoode series bestsellers in Poland.

His books have now been translated into six languages. In 1981 he was given Poland's highest literary honour, the Council of Ministers Award, for his life's work.
