The Chameleon Wore Chartreuse (Chet Gecko Mysteries)

by Bruce Hale

The Chameleon Wore Chartreuse (Chet Gecko Mysteries) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Chet Gecko loves a good mystery. Almost more than he loves his fee--stinkbug pie.

So when fellow fourth grader Shirley Chameleon asks him to find her missing brother, Billy, Chet expects the case to be as easy a pie. But Billy's disappearance is part of a larger plot, one that involves the Rat Sisters, a riddling junkyard dog, and a vicious Gila monster named Herman. If Chet doesn't solve the case fast, the entire school could be humiliated. Worst of all, Chet might not get his fee. And Chet's hungry. . . .

Synopsis:

When fellow fourth-grader Shirley Chameleon asks him to find her missing brother, Billy, Chet Gecko finds that Billy's disappearance is part of a larger plot, one that involves the Rat Sisters, a riddling junkyard dog, and a vicious Gila monster named Herman. Illustrations.
