The Mystery of the Masked Marauder Peter S Cox

A LIBRARY JOURNAL SELF-E SELECTION Kidnapping, mystery, and the secret lives of pets. Ever wonder why your dog will eat absolutely anything? Or why he seems to lose his mind whenever a squirrel is within 100 feet? Or question how your cat really feels about you? Nate doesn't have to wonder anymore. As soon as he moved to a new town, he discovered that he could talk to animals...and they could talk to him. This opens up a whole new world of exploration and adventure - at first. But when neighborhood animals begin disappearing and a masked figure appears outside Nate's bedroom window, it's up to Nate and his trusty dog Basset to get to the bottom of the mystery and save the neighborhood. Along the way Nate and Basset encounter some unlikely friends: a gossiping, overweight cat, a lying weasel, and a hyperactive pug named Franklin. Can Nate solve the clues in time?
