3. CHAPTER 1: MRS FANDINKLE LAYS A COMPLAINT

4. An Ordinary day at Hu-Dunnit Detective Agency There was a knock at the door. Who could it be? We have no appointments today, thought Dt. Hu. Dt. Dunnit looked up from his paperwork, and frowned. “We really need a full time secretary.” Hu knew they couldn’t afford to hire a secretary for full time work. She ignored her partner’s complaints. Grumpy old man, she thought. “Come in!” she said.

5. Mrs Fandinkle strode through the door She was purposeful and determined to make herself heard from the moment she stepped into the room. Hu and Dunnit glanced and each other. The rumpled geriatric was not what they would have expected. She was not like their usual clients. They could read each others dismay. The senile old biddy had probably got lost and needed directions. Still, they fixed a smile on their faces and asked…

6. How can we help you? Well, my dearies I just hope you can do a better job than those blasted police. They didn’t want to know, did they? Didn’t want to know… Let me tell you something for free – I’ve got a case that’ll knock your socks off! Well, my dearies I just hope you can do a better job than those blasted police. They didn’t want to know, did they? Didn’t want to know… Let me tell you something for free – I’ve got a case that’ll knock your socks off!

7. Last night, while I was sitting down to a nice cup of tea… There I was just minding my own business, when all of a sudden there was a loud noise at the window. And my kitty cat was at the door, making an enormous racket, poor thing – so scared! Well, I opened the door, and what do you know – I found this on the doorstep.

9. Well I never! So I took my cane and I went looking around the place. And there, underneath my window, you’ll never guess what I saw…

10. Footprints! A man’s shoe print – size 12 (I measured it)

11. CHAPTER 2: THE INTERVIEW

Click the question you want Dunnit to ask next: a.Would anyone have a reason to threaten you?Would anyone have a reason to threaten you? b.Do you know anyone with size 12 shoes?Do you know anyone with size 12 shoes? c.Is there are Mr. Fandinkle?Is there are Mr. Fandinkle?

13. Would anyone have a reason to threaten you? Interview Ronan There was one young so-and- so who got a bit angry. You see, I own Fandinkle’s Fantastic Fried Chicken. The other day I had to fire one of my workers. Ronan was his name. Dirty good for nothin’ thief! Go back

14. Do you know anyone who owns a pair of size 12 shoes? Interview Reggie That old bugger Reggie from Reginald’s Rooster Royale might. He’s got mighty big feet. And you know, his diner is right across the road from Fandinkle’s Fantastic Fried Chicken. They’re our competition, you know. Go Back

15. Is there a Mr Fandinkle? Interview Ronan Oh, you flirt! No, Sir, just me – my business keeps me busy. You might have heard of us – Fandinkle’s Fantastic Fried Chicken. In fact, if you want to look for suspects, you should start there. I had to fire a young man for stealing from me the other day! A boy named Ronan! Go Back

16. Ronan Why were you fired by Mrs Fandinkle? She said I was stealing. She’s crazy! I’m happy to be working at Reggie’s now Next So you deny stealing? Yessir! Why’d I want to do that? Look, I’m happy at Reggies now. Their Triple Threat Combustion Burger is the greatest. One more thing – what size shoes do you wear? Size 9. Why?

17. Hmmm… It doesn’t seem like Ronan left the threatening letter. And his shoes don’t match the footprints under Mrs Fandinkle’s window. I wonder if Mrs. F. knows anyone who wears size 12 shoes?

18. Reggie To be honest, I’m not surprised someone is threatening Mrs F. She might come across all friendly, but she’s been trying to put me out of business for years. If it weren’t for our new Triple Threat Combustion Burger that just came out we’d be sunk! Yes, I have size 12 feet. What of it?

19. Interesting… Reggie seems to think Mrs Fandinkle has made lots of enemies over the years. I wonder which one of them could have left the note?

20. Hu isn’t so sure “I still don’t trust Reggie. He seems too good to be true… but I have done some research, and he’s right – people don’t like Mrs Fandinkle. She is mean to her staff, estranged from her family – it seems like she doesn’t have a friend in the world!”
