SHOCKING NEWS FROM THE PICKLE DESERT
 |
| Snod, up a mountain last week. Could he really have turned to crime? |
Famous explorer Captain Snod has been arrested for stealing the Glittering Gherkin, a unique and priceless treasure which formed part of the crown jewels owned by the Queen of the Pickle Desert. Although there were six other suspects and Snod says he is innocent of the crime, the Pickle police are unconvinced and say that he has no alibi.
The glittering Gherkin has been kept in the Tower of Capers for the past 600 years and is rumoured to have magical abilities. Snod is a famous explorer who has published many books about his adventures in the Lava Regions, the Sticky Swamp and Mount Sidewinder.
Is there no one who can find the true culprit and free Snod? The other suspects are Oceanographer Marky Shark, historian Alice Spyglass, test pilot Tommy Tornado, local shopkeeper Fiona McGuffin and botanist Flora Fern who was conducting the largest ever study of the prickly pickle.
