Damian Drooth has already solved two cases to great acclaim, and now he thinks it’s time to pass on his skills. His students want practical experience, so he leads his seven eager trainees through the city looking for “ciminle tipes.” In the library they hit the jackpot when they spot a blonde woman checking out a book titled Loot. Unfortunately they are prevented from pursuing her, but when they go to a dog show the next day, their suspect turns out to be the judge! Damian overhears her in incriminating conversation, but when the police take too long to arrive, the children must stage a mock riot in order to prevent her from leaving the scene. Will Damian be able to save the day once again?
