A really cool mystery

In this mysterious book, Rex Tabby Cat Detective, there is an exciting adventure ahead of you. Some of the main characters are Rex Tabby, Frankie Fluff, and Rex's best buddy Simon Meeze. These characters during the book are trying to catch a bad family. In the family is, Ma Manx and her children Rumpy and Stumpy, the worst of all! The story takes place in Whiskerville, USA. The main idea of this story is to catch Rumpy and Stumpy before they do something horrible. The beginning of this story starts with Ma Manx and her children stealing sardines. Rex Tabby knows that the family is stealing, and goes undercover to catch them. Rex is able to arrest Ma Manx, but Rumpy and Stumpy get away. Ma Manx is sent to prison and Rumpy and Stumpy are out on the loose alone. Rex Tabby starts asking the people he knows if they know where Rumpy and Stumpy are. Then Rex Tabby gets a call to go to the amusement park to catch Rumpy and Stumpy, but is told he can only go alone. Rex Tabby brings two friends anyways, and tells them to hide. Rumpy and Stumpy are in disguise there, and Rex falls for the trick of bringing them food for the reward to catch Rumpy and Stumpy. Rumpy and Stumpy jump out of the disguise and pour mysterious powder on Rex Tabby and slap cuffs on his ankle and hands. Then, you'll have to read the book to find out if Rumpy and Stumpy ever get caught. I enjoyed the book, and I thought it was really interesting. This book is a good choice if you like cool mysteries.
