Here we have Sealoch Foams and Dr. Aonyx Flotsam, our very own private investigators. Foams and Flotsam are out to solve Havenburrow’s biggest mysteries. They were recently hired by an anonymous client regarding the pupnapping of several pinkies. Six in the last seven weeks!
Peanut and Little Jake have been under strict guidance to stay home and close to trusted rodents until the mystery is solved. The townscritters are being interviewed one by one, starting with the ferrets, foxes, and meerkats, of course.
Father Meerkolas-Noel, priest and arms-dealer, would be a prime suspect. Especially if the crimes were committed for monetary gain. But who would be making his market?
Lt. Tom “Foxman” Vulpensky is known for his benevolent airplane rides for the pups at local fairs… Could his goodwill have an ulterior motive?
We can’t ignore Four Leaf Ferret and Hob Speedman as potential suspects. Not only are these good ol’ ‘rets strict carnivores, but they do associate with the Bandicota Bandits.
Of course, the bikers are rats themselves… Surely they wouldn’t traffic their own kind…
No one wants to believe it, but what about the Duke and Duchess? They’ve been known to occasionally dine on small rodents for special occasions, though they have sworn only adult pygmy critters, like tiny shrews. But look at Lady Chanel… She hasn’t aged a day since they arrived in Havenburrow so many years ago…
For all we know, Pierre Rattenburg himself could be involved, but good luck bringing justice down on a rat of his stature!
He’s got Mayor Webster and Sheriff Mastershoat in his pocket. Until Foams and Flotsam do their work, all the critter chatter of Havenburrow is mere conjecture and conspiracy theory. We’ll have to wait and see…
