This plot reeks!

The Stink Squad unearths an evil plot at the Museum of Ancient Sniffstory. Someone has stolen the Golden Nose of King Tustinkhamen, an Egyptian artifact so powerful it can smell into the future.

How can the Stink Squad find the thief in a museum packed with suspects? There's Gnarla the fortune-smeller, Professor Feeble, who's hard-of-smelling, and his sharp young assistant, Vinscent Slick. But the Stink Squad is running out of time. They've got to find the Golden Nose -- before the mummy of King Tustinkhamen finds them!

If you've read any of the Stink Squad books, than you know that Katherine O'Neal's sense of humor is great. Excellent plays on words that kids will enjoy. Slight gross-out humor will amuse the boys and the overall story will keep girls interested. Hilarious!
