William Ritter: The Map
Abigail hopes that her birthday will slip by unnoticed and uncelebrated, but her employer, detective of the supernatural R. F. Jackaby, has other plans. Using magical party crackers that teleport the pair to unknown destinations in time and space and a cryptic map that may lead to a forgotten treasure, Jackaby intends to give Abigail what he considers to be the best gift of all--adventure.
Abigail and Jackaby must tame an enormous (and carnivorous) rabbit, defend a castle, and master a dirigible if they want to find the treasure and get back to New Fiddleham alive.
A short short story featuring a Sherlock Holmes of the supernatural and his assistant. It's a treasure hunt. Disengage brain and it's fine. No pretensions or depth and Jackaby and Abigail are pleasant enough protagonists
An extremely fun little romp through New England with Abigail and Jackaby. It was very entertaining and a wonderful way to kill time while I wait for the final book. I'm terrible at remembering my ebooks, and that's the only reason it took me so long to finish it. Now if I can just get my hands on The Dire King!
