Bookroo's summary
In Capital City, Private I faces a puzzling case: clocks and watches are vanishing. With time slipping away, can he solve the mystery before the city loses track of time forever? Join Private I as he navigates a world of letters and puns, where every tick of the clock counts. Will he catch the culprit and restore order, or will time remain lost in this whimsical detective noir adventure?
From the publisher
The team behind 7 Ate 9 and The Upper Case: Trouble in Capital City is back with another installment of their pun-filled detective noir Private I series. This time, Private I is in a race to find all the missing clocks in town! In the colorful and letter-filled Capital City, there’s never a moment’s rest for Private I, the city’s best investigator. Trouble seems to always have a way of finding him–trouble with a capital T. On this particular day, T tells Private I that his watch is missing. And T isn’t alone–the citizens of Capital City have lost track of timepieces all over town! Can Private I catch the perp and make up for lost time before it’s too late?
