The Final Disguise: Or, A Scandal in Pomerania

by C. Glen Williams

Adapted from "Maddened by Mystery: or, The Defective Detective" by Stephen Leacock

When the telegram comes through from Paris that the Prince of Wurttemburg has been kidnapped, England's -- nay, the world's -- greatest detective swings into action! But for our hero, will this be... the Final Disguise? A rollicking parody of Sherlockian mystery adapted from a classic short satire. For younger artists and audiences, a list of pre-approved edits to the text is attached.
