Description

A small group of curious boys has turned their love of puzzles into a secret club, dubbing themselves Detectives, Inc. Their headquarters is a cramped attic, and their tools are notebooks, a flashlight and a shared determination to solve anything that baffles the grown‑ups. When a local newspaper announces a strange series of break‑ins at a training school for guide dogs, the boys seize the chance for their first real investigation.

The boys soon discover a world where disciplined German shepherds guide blind students through bustling streets, a setting that proves both fascinating and vital to the case. As they interview instructors and practice the careful commands used by the dogs, they learn how trust and precision keep the partnership working. Their sleuthing leads them to a puzzling clue that suggests someone is trying to sabotage the school’s reputation, setting the stage for a suspenseful chase through alleys and classrooms.
