Donald J. Sobol, author of the popular Encyclopedia Brown books, tickles his reader's curiosity (and funny bone) in this hilarious tale of friendship, ingenuity, and smashing achievement. We meet Ken Mullins and his three buddies Orv, Horseshoes and Bo, who unexpectedly find themselves forming a detective squad-V.A.C.U.U.M.(Volunteer Agents Crusading Unsteadily Under Mongoose). Assisted by Mary Evans, the girl expert in karate (her title: V.A.C.U.U.M. B.A.G.), they are soon thrown between the nefarious "Cobra" gang (which is threatening the entire city of Miami for high stakes) and "Mongoose," the sleepy-seeming good guys. Now the fun begins: vintage cars, a World War I De Havilland airplane, island escapades, a sinister weapon and a constantly twisting plot keep the reader breathless between suspense and laughter. A well-written and enjoyable addition to our Adventure Library.
