Who’d think that the best detectives at Grimmly School in the graveyard-turned-village Bonetown were a ghoul, a werewolf, a fat vampire with glasses and a girl made from spare parts in a laboratory? But that’s what Jake Ghoul, Milton, Vlad and Jenny Parts have become: detectives. Using an old book titled How To Be A Detective: The Casebook of Deadlock Bones, the Detectives solve a multitude of mysterious mishaps in school and around the town. There is humor, a little horror, a graveyard’s worth of memorable characters and some good old-fashioned sleuthing in this series of chapter books.
Book Two: In the middle of lunch period, Milton discovers he has picked up the wrong backpack by mistake. This one is filled with dirt...and a strange skull. The Detectives follow the clues to Milton's missing backpack, which leads them to a deeper mystery. Why is Coach Flogg acting so weird? What is science teacher Miss Dalgrimple hiding? And what's up with class brain, Dead Ernest, and his science experiment?
