Hugh Ashton

The Adventures of Sherlock Ferret Hugh Ashton

Sherlock Ferret, the world's cutest detective, solves mysteries with the help of his friend Watson Mouse, and their friend Lestrade, who is a rhinoceros (though not a very big one). Together, they take on such nefarious characters as Moriarty Magpie, Colonel Sebastian Moorhen, Pablo Pigasso (yes, that Pigasso!), some scurrilous beasts from South America, and a mysterious photographer who is annoying Mr. Montague Mole.

The adventures in this book are:

The Missing Necklace The Multiplying Masterpieces The Poisoned Pond The Phantom Photographer

with a bonus story of Vinnie the Visitor.



Sherlock Ferret adventures are enjoyed by children between 7 and 11 - as well as being suitable for reading to younger children. Adults also enjoy the sly humour and the references to Sherlock Holmes.
