Overview

Welcome to Alder's Fen - a quiet village where the only thing more dramatic than the weather is what happens when someone messes with the barbecue. It's the day of the big summer sizzle at The Hare & Barrel, and landlady Tracie has stocked the beer fridge with three dozen glorious butcher's sausages. But when a tray mysteriously vanishes just before the grill gets going, suspicion spreads like ketchup on a bap. Luckily, two unlikely detectives are already on the case: Denney - four years old, loyal, grumbly, and mildly allergic to nonsense. Dixie - two years old, energetic, enthusiastic, and occasionally cross-eyed. They might look like ordinary dogs to the humans of Alder's Fen, but Denney and Dixie are no strangers to sniffing out trouble. When clues start piling up - from a butcher's sticker behind the bin to a stash of sausages hidden in a suspiciously soggy sack - the canine crime-fighters realise something big (and sausage-scented) is going on. Their investigation leads them past shady raccoons, overly dramatic magpies, and a ferret who may or may not be meditating. But when a mysterious fox cub enters the scene, Denney and Dixie are faced with a deeper mystery than they expected - one that's not just about sausages, but survival, second chances, and what it means to be part of a pack. Told through sharp noses, twitchy tails, and a whole lot of heart, The Case of the Vanishing Sausage is the first story in a funny, heartwarming mystery series for children aged 7-11. Packed with clues, comedy, teamwork, and a village full of eccentric animal residents, this is the perfect series for kids who love animal adventures, clever puzzles, and a little light chaos. Set in the same world as the bestselling Wilson & Jarvis mystery series for adults, Denney & Dixie offer a fresh and hilarious perspective on the goings-on in Alder's Fen - solving mysteries under the noses of the humans, and occasionally nicking a sausage along the way. Ideal for fans of: Animal sleuths and talking pet adventures Humour-filled mystery stories Village life with a twist Cosy crime meets canine chaos
