About this series
The latest mystery for the Third Pig Detective Agency.
Harry Pigg is back…
…and it’s a good job he isn’t scared of spiders.
When Little Miss Muffet turns up at the Third Pig Detective Agency she presents Harry and his team – an ex-genie and a precocious kid called Jack Horner – with a most intriguing case. Her charming little B&B has been infested with giant spiders and she wants to find out who is responsible.
Harry dives headfirst into this web of intrigue (sorry!) and finds himself caught up in rather more than a simple arachnid problem.
The Third Pig Detective Agency series has been acclaimed by readers, crime writers and prize judging panels alike. If you haven’t discovered what makes Harry Pigg so popular then now is the time!

- The Third Pig Detective Agency
1
A rather silly detective story in the spirit of Jasper Fforde. Harry Pigg, the only surviving brother from the Big Bad Wolf attacks, has set up business as a private detective in Grimmtown, only things aren't going too well. Down on his luck, with bills to pay and no clients in sight the outlook is poor. But then in walks local businessman Aladdin who needs someone to help him track down an old lamp. What follows is a case of nursery rhyme-noir. Funny, thrilling and always entertaining, Harry Pigg is an old breed of hero for a new generation. It's as if Humphrey Bogart or James Cagney had walked into the middle of a bedtime story. A comedy caper for all ages. The first in a major new series.
- The Ho Ho Ho Mystery
2
The festive follow-up to The Third Pig Detective Agency. When Father Christmas goes missing on Christmas Eve eve, Mrs Christmas calls on our intrepid hero Harry Pigg to track him down. What follows is another hardboiled caper featuring fairy tale villains, plenty of red herrings, a few close shaves, a couple of punch ups and a very clever twist. Aided and abetted by his sidekicks Jack Horner and the genie from the lamp, Harry tries to save Christmas before time runs out. If only he didn’t have to deal with those bloody annoying elves.
