Don?t know why as their parent?s, police constables Thomas and Ida Sink, look nothing alike.The 1st instalment of the Sink Detectives takes us way-back to the early 1970s. It?s just another ordinary day in Peachborough Town as the twins set off for school. They are unaware that soon a classroom incident, created by persons unknown, will strike at the very heart of a much-loved elderly teacher. Not to mention ruining a promising, but - long way off - Broadway play.Lizzie rallies a lethargic Simon to join her and help crack the case. Now primed with their combined detective skills, they investigate the clues: a mysterious shoe print, some chalk dust and an exposed toe, to name but just a few.Their investigation leads them to suspect a friend. One especially close to Lizzie. But then there?s the notorious classroom troublemaker and bully. What about him? Fingers are even pointed at Simon and Lizzie themselves. With accusations flying and tensions rising, Lizzie and Simon must prove their innocence while uncovering the real culprit.Join Lizzie and Simon as they navigate a web of school drama, tricky clues, and unexpected twists. Can they solve the mystery and restore order to their classroom, or will some sly someone thwart them?Part Two - George ToomeeIn the 2nd instalment of the Sink Detectives stories, the George Toomee case bubbles to the surface. It?s been six months since George, a topflight pickle salesman, world renowned bird watcher and beloved father of seven children, went missing. But now the police finally have their first clue. Or do they?Well, it matters not if the police are clued-in, or clueless, because today constable Thomas Sink carries the case file home under an armpit. As too does he carry the hopes of the whole Toomee family!This case sends the Sinks out of Peachborough and on a long, noisy (which Lizzie dislikes immensely) drive. The case clues and their hope of finding Mr Toomee rest within abandoned cars, a small bird photograph, broken tree branches and a coconut boat. Not to mention a retirement village filled with very interesting, if not eccentric, characters.Will the investigation lead to them finding George Toomee? Or will solving this mystery prove too tricky even for the Sinks? For the sake of his family, and beloved pickle factory who are down one topflight salesperson, let?s hope not.Part three - MondayCome Monday it will be alright. Well, that?s what the song says.

And for all the wrong reasons.Pressure at work mounts for police constable Thomas Sink, and his kids, Simon and Lizzie, are caught right in the middle of the mess. Is their involvement purely coincidental? Or is something else a foot?With a green duffel bag, a set of bolt cutters, a leaking roof and a series of misunderstandings to unravel, can Simon and Lizzie solve the case before the ultimate ruination of their family?s reputation?Perhaps it?s time for a superhero to step in.If only a boy Gremlin hadn?t gone into his family?s backyard and blown our plastic superhero saviour to bits. Oh, the humanity...
