Harriet loves a good mystery, and together she and her aunts are always interested in a new case, so when she discovers lost cowgirl aunt named Formica, she already envisions an addition to their detective force. But cattle rustlers are Aunt Formica's problem - and it may take the entire team to solve the problem. A little under a hundred pages of action paired with black and white drawing by Laura Rankin make this easy reading mystery a treat.

We have the whole series of three Harriet Bean books from A. McCall Smith. THey are very well written interesting stories, good to read alone of read-aloud for the whole family. Interesting and intelligent books for kids.

Of the three Harriet Bean books that I purchased for my grandchildren, this is the weakest tale. However, it was written in the charming style of Alexander McCall Smith and I highly recommend it for young readers.

I bought this book for a 10 year old relative and have not read it. However, ANYTHING written by McCall Smith is always good.
