Synopsis

Someone is imprisoned in a horrible cage! Jack is trying to get caught by Ranger Johnny Wolf! What is Foxie up to? And just who is sharing Jack's basket these days? Things are mixed-up in Doggeroo.

Everything was fine until Sarge got sick. Now Auntie Tidge is looking after Jack, but Foxie is being disagreeable (again). When will Sarge be back?

In no time, Jack has both a case and a moral dilemma or two. Is it right to leave his most dangerous enemy trussed up in a cage? And, who will mind the pup Preacher while he's off detecting?

About this title

About the Author:

Darrel and Sally Odgers were both born in Tasmania in 1957, and have been married since 1979. They have two grown up children, James and Tegan. Their first book together was published in the 1990s.
The Jack Russell series is their most successful collaboration so far, and they thank their inspiration, Ace, for that:
She was lively, opinionated, busy, and always curious. She loved swimming, and playing ball games of her own invention.
We were out walking one day and Ace, as usual, was sticking her nose into everything. She's a real detective, said Darrel. We spent the rest of the walk planning the adventures of a dog detective! When we wrote up the proposal for the series, we had Ace sign it with a paw print, for luck. It must have worked, because the Jack Russell: Dog Detective series has grown to eight books, with more to come.
