Sherlock Hound is trying to teach Dr Whatsup Wombat to waltz when a mysterious telegram interrupts their lesson. Professor Greymatter has vanished, along with his extraordinary mind-reading machine. The only clue is a trail of strange footprints stamped into wet cement.

Can the clever detectives solve the case before the fiend strikes again?
