Chaser the Caser is no ordinary detective—she's a kid detective, and she aspires to be the best of her time. It’s winter break for Chaser; her pet betta fish, Speedy; her little brother, Pie Boy; and their mom. After a huge winter storm, a family of snowmen appears in the middle of her neighborhood’s cul-de-sac, creating a mystery with many questions that put Chaser’s detective skills to work. Chaser will ask questions like, “Who's done it? How’d it happen? And why did this mystery occur?” The case becomes even more intriguing when the stick arms of most of the snowmen start to disappear. Determined to uncover the who, how, and why of the case, Chaser is committed to solving the mystery and achieving her dream of being featured in her favorite magazine from the Junior Detectives’ Society.
