Where have all the gargoyles gone? Supersleuth Sesame Seade is on her second case the minute she learns that several of the monstrous stony sentinels on the Cambridge University rooftops have gone missing. But as she courageously tracks down clues―some of which lead her to dizzying heights―and starts piecing them together, she realizes that gargoyles gone AWOL isn’t the only mystery afoot in town. From peculiar footprints on the lawns and torrents of laboratory mice running wild to the strange lethargy of Peter Mortimer, Sesame’s normally ferocious cat, Cambridge’s number-one supersleuth suddenly has her hands full. In this riotous sequel to Sleuth on Skates, the whole gang―including Mr. Halitosis―is back as Sesame pits her wits against a devious gargoyle thief and whoever is behind a spate of strange scientific experimentation!

Clémentine Beauvais was born in Paris, where she picked up children's books and never put them down. She is a student of children's literature. Now living in Cambridge, England, she knows Sesame Seade's haunts well.
Gr 4–6—When the gargoyles of Cambridge University go missing, roller-skating sleuth Sesame Seade is on the case, investigating clues and tracking down leads. Horne's charming black-and-white spot illustrations add a sense of whimsy, breaking up the text, while Beauvais's Briticisms add further to the fun. Daring and indomitable, Sesame is a delightful heroine whose snarky asides and dialogue will leave readers in stitches. Mystery and humor fans are in luck.
