Read Description

In Mark Twain's short novel Tom Sawyer Detective (1896), Huck Finn relates the story of his and Tom's trip to Arkansas to help Tom's Uncle Silas. Learning that he has confessed to a murder he didn't commit, Tom must open the mail-order detective kit he has just purchased in order to clear Uncle Silas' name. Stolen diamonds, a shallow grave, and a pair of dangerous criminals all factor into this thrilling, lesser-known comic gem by Twain.
