Opening
Inspector Flytrap s phone rang.
And rang.
And rang.
And rang.
Finally, a really loud taped voice said: Hello, you ve reached the office of Inspector Flytrap and Inspector Nina the Goat. They are not in the office today, because Inspector Flytrap s grandmother has come to visit. Please leave a message at the sound of the bleat.
Bleat, said a very bored taped voice.
This is Koko Dodo! I shouted into the phone. What are you telling me about a grandmother? I ve got a BIG DEAL mystery for you to solve! My Super Secret Fudge Sauce has been stolen! Right before the Queen s Royal Cookie Contest! What am I going to do? Who will help me? Who? WHO?
Then a taped voice said, Are you still talking? Don t bother. Nina the Goat will probably eat this tape before I get a chance to listen to it anyway. Good-bye.

I began to sob.
PART 1
Her Majesty s Super Secret Fudge Sauce
Chapter 1
I was still sobbing when someone came into my store, Koko Dodo s Cookie Shop.
She was wearing roller skates. And she came in really, really, really fast. TOO FAST!
She smashed into my cookie case, flew into the air, knocked over a bowl full of chocolate chips, and landed in a fresh batch of snickerdoodle dough.
Have no fear, Didi Dodo is here! she said.
Do you want to buy a cookie? I asked.
Well, maybe, she said, but I really came because I heard you needed help.
Oh my goodness, I really do! If you can help me, I ll GIVE you the cookie. But how did you know I needed help?
I m Didi Dodo, Future Spy. I know many things and have many daring plans.
A future spy ? I asked. Does that mean you re from the future?
No.
