“We have a small problem,” Mouselet squeaked urgently.

“Just a trifle!” Aemelia Vole added.

Holmes and Watson, who had been checking out the duke’s library, came rushing into the dining room.

“I wouldn’t really call that a trifle,” Watson exclaimed.

“At least, not any more,” Holmes agreed.

There, in the middle of a large bowl of cream-covered dessert was the Ferret, spread-ferreted.

“Watson, hide him in your bag!” Holmes ordered.

“He’ll be all sticky,” Watson objected.

“Use one of the napkins,” Mouselet squeaked.

Watson picked up the Ferret, while Holmes did his best to smooth the cream.

“Quick, let’s go!”
