A cunning disguise.

Some stinky seaweed.

And a dastardly villain on the loose . . . sounds like another case for Wilma Tenderfoot!

Wilma Tenderfoot, the feisty and determined assistant to the greatest living detective, Theodore P. Goodman, is faced with a peculiar, and pongy, case to crack. Cooper Island's vaudeville theatre becomes centre stage for a murderous menace, as one by one the actors are fatally poisoned. Can Wilma, along with her faithful hound and dazzling dancing partner, Pickle, discover the fiend's identity . . . before the final curtain falls for Wilma herself?

Emma Kennedy writes things for the radio and the tellybox. She also does some dressing up and pretending to be other people on TV. Sometimes she wins prizes for these things, but her greatest achievement EVER was being the Runner-Up World Conker Champion. She would have won, but was let down by a soft nut. There are two things she would like to do before she dies. 1. She would like to fly a hot-air balloon. Proper fly it, not just stare out of it like a lemon. And 2. Grow wings. That's it. She has a most excellent beagle called Poppy, who can walk like a crab. Emma's favourite word is ramalamadingdong.
