What is Detectograms® The Parrot Who Knew Too Much about?

Inspector Cross and her officers arrive at a warehouse just too late: the Dempsey Gang have escaped with a haul of stolen gold.

To track down the criminals, readers must solve 46 Detectograms® packed with codes, maps, logic puzzles and visual challenges. Each mini chapter reveals another clue, bringing young detectives closer to uncovering where the gang has gone.
