1997 - The Chocolate Money Mystery - Plot & Excerpts
Then she drew a deep breath and dashed as fast as she could to the back of the dog shed. So far so good, she thought. Now all she had to do was to wait for Max’s signal. This came a minute or so later, a low whistle which anybody else would think was a bird call but which she knew was her brother. At this, Maddy took out the twig she had tucked into her pocket and began to scratch at the back of the shed. For a dog it was an interesting noise, and it meant only one thing—rats! Immediately Maddy started, the dogs began to whine and bark, and the more she scratched, the harder the dogs barked. What a rat it must be, thought the St Bernards. Oh, quick! Let us at it! We’ll teach it a thing or two! Exactly as Max had hoped, the back door was flung open and Professor Sardine strode out. “Why are you making that noise?” he yelled angrily. “You wretched dogs! I’ll teach you to disturb my afternoon nap!” The irate professor strode to the dog shed to bang loudly on their door.
