"Hale entertains with a noir style adapted for a young audience. . . .
Those who haven't read a 'Chet Gecko' mystery don't know what
they're missing."--School Library Journal
Description
In this wisecracking, sidesplitting mystery from Chet Gecko's tattered casebook, the fourth-grade detective and his punning mockingbird partner, Natalie Attired, keep the peace at Emerson Hicky Elementary. In this adventure, they track down the winning ticket for the biggest, chocolatiest, most gut-busting dessert ever, the Malted Falcon. Danger has never been so delicious!
