    About this audiobook

    Whiffy Newton, real first name Alfred, hardly looks like a crack amateur super-sleuth.
    His clothes are too short and too tight. He never gets picked first for sports. And he has poor eyesight.
    But he's got his two best friends - Doreen and Paz - and together, the three friends form the detective outfit The Agency.
    Until now, The Agency has only handled the discreet enquiries of other put upon children at Kentwood High. But The Case of the Dastardly Deeds sees them take on their biggest, their craziest, their most dangerous, case yet.
    For readers who love Jeff Kinney's Wimpy Kid series, the books of Andy Griffiths and funny detective stories in the vein of The Red Hand Gang, The Five Find Outers, The Famous Five, The Secret Seven, Geronimo Stilton and Encyclopedia Brown comes a new, style-challenged hero, Whiffy Newton!
