Teaming up with Ollie, a streetwise member of the Baker Street Irregulars, Poppy must learn the art of deduction, disguise, and observation to catch a thief who's been stealing precious oddities from every corner of the city - a stolen jewel, a vanished violin, a coded letter, and a kidnapped prize-winning goose.
