Series: Adventures of Sherlock Bones

Super-sleuth Sherlock Bones and his trusty sidekick Dr Catson are back for another crime-solving adventure.

This time, the duo are visiting the tombs of ancient feline kings in Egypt when they discover that some of their treasure has been stolen. They have to interview tourists from around the world – including pandas, camels and lions – to discover who is guilty. But the mystery is not as straightforward as it first seems. It will take the pair on a thrilling adventure deep inside the Egyptian tombs and require all of Bones and Catson’s skills to crack the crime.

The second book in Buster’s brand-new Sherlock Bones fiction series features puzzles – such as search games, logical conundrums and silhouette matches – woven into the action, so the reader feels immersed in the exciting detective plot.

Reviews for Sherlock Bones and the Curse of the Pharaoh’s Mask: A Puzzle Quest

A very interesting concept, slightly reminiscent of the 'Choose your own Adventure' books. This will appeal to key stage 2 readers, especially those who may have reading difficulties and encourages collaboration among readers, with one reading the story and the other solving the puzzles. * The School Librarian *
