   Additional Information  
 
  In this fifteenth book in the series, Chet finally gets a case that throws him for a loop. People he thinks are the salt of the earth turn out to be the scum of the pond. And lowdown punks turn out to be nice guys. Then there's a deadly, school-wide stink bomb and a classroom fire that almost spells the end for Chet. It's enough to make a gecko give up detecting and turn to knitting doilies. But he toughs it out. And why? Loyalty. Someone's trying to put his mongoose janitor pal Maureen DeBree on ice. A true-blue P.I. doesn't take that kind of monkey business lying down. Oh, no, Chet Gecko keeps digging for truth like a mole after an earthworm sandwich. When you want your floors waxed, dial "M" for mongoose. When you want danger, deception, and trouble galore, dial "G" for Gecko.
