Age: 7+

The second instalment of the detective series about Franz – an excellent sleuth and the smallest boy in class. It’s the summer holidays and Vienna is full of adventures just waiting to be discovered. But the summer could have been off to a better start. Gabi and Eberhard won’t stop fighting, and Franz has no intention of splitting his holidays between the two friends. It would just mean less holidays! After all, they will have to put their differences aside if they want to catch their strict, and very suspicious, neighbour in the act of stealing. But not everything is what it seems.
