Description

Jerry Todd, a quick‑witted teen detective, is drawn into a new case by an unexpected ally—a talking frog that seems to hold secret information. With his friends Scoop, Peg and newcomer Tom Ricks, they venture toward a haunted brick house where the frog’s croak hints at a deeper mystery.

At midnight the old house moans with a ghostly presence, its footsteps echoing on the porch as the trio keeps the doors locked. Inside they uncover the tragic story of a puzzle‑making inventor who died under mysterious circumstances, and a cryptic clue—‘ten and ten’—that seems to guard something valuable. Meanwhile, the miraculous Bubbles of Beauty soap adds a comic splash to their daring search.

Fans of spooky atmospheres, clever riddles, and light‑hearted banter will find this adventure captivating. Jerry’s crew and the chatty frog turn each clue into a splash of fun, keeping listeners eager for what comes next. Dive in and join the hunt before the mystery fully unfolds.
