Nate the Great and the Phony Clue
by Marjorie Weinman Sharmat (Author) Marc Simont (Illustrator)
Early one morning, a torn slip of paper with the mysterious letters V I T A appears on Nate the Great's doorstep.
He and his faithful dog, Sludge, set off to solve this latest mystery. Against ferocious cats, hostile adversaries, and a sly, phony clue—not to mention a three o'clock deadline—Nate struggles to prove, once again, that he is Nate the Great.
