About this book

Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose head to Washington, D.C., for a snowy December tour of the White House—and team up with KC and Marshall from Capital Mysteries when the president’s dog suddenly goes missing. Clues lead the kids through bustling holiday decorations, secretive corridors, and famous landmarks as they piece together what happened. Short chapters, fast-paced action, and plenty of kid-smart sleuthing make this an inviting mystery for elementary readers. Fans love the blend of humor, teamwork, and a behind-the-scenes peek at the White House during the holidays.

Setting: Washington, D.C., primarily inside the White House during a snowy December/Christmas season
