Rollercoasters Bug Muldoon and the Garden of Fear by Paul Shipton
Something weird is happening in the garden and insect PI Bug Muldoon has to get to the bottom of it. It started out as a run-of-the-mill missing insect case, but now the ants are acting strange and the Wasp Queen is threatening to kill him. Just what is going on? Told in a Raymond Chandler-style narrative, Bug Muldoon and the Garden of Fear is an engaging and accessible example of the detective genre that will appeal to both boys and girls.
