Bookroo's summary
Jigsaw Jones looks forward to a school-free camping trip, but when marshmallows start disappearing, his detective instincts kick in. With tales of a Marshmallow Monster haunting the lake, Jigsaw and his partner Mila Yeh must unravel the truth. Is there really a creature lurking, or is something else at play? As they investigate, the duo faces unexpected twists and turns, testing their sleuthing skills. Can they solve the mystery before the trip ends, or will the monster remain a legend?
From the publisher
Jigsaw is excited about his camping trip with his friends – no school, and no detective work. But a full moon and a campfire story about a lake creature get Jigsaw back in business. When the marshmallows begin to disappear, Danika is sure a Marshmallow Monster is haunting the lake. Jigsaw and Mila scope out the area and wait to find out the real story.
