Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn are back in another sequel to their adventures in Tom Sawyer, Detective, by American author Mark Twain. Twain, known for writing the “great American novel,” is renowned for his humorous tales that often have themes dealing with slavery, poverty, and hypocrisy.

In his children’s adventure novel, Tom Sawyer, Detective, Tom sets out to solve a murder mystery after meeting Jake Dunlap, who is on the run from thieves he stole diamonds from. After helping him escape, Tom and Huck find themselves on the farm of Tom’s Uncle Silas, who is being harassed by Jake Dunlap’s brother Brace in order to force Silas’ daughter Benny into marrying him. When the body of Jake’s brother Jubiter is found, Silas is suddenly on trial for murder and Tom must save him. Told from the perspective of Huck Finn, the friends are caught between two brothers, two diamonds, and two con men. Tom Sawyer, Detective is a dramatic culmination of all the great detective novels of its time, with a thrilling storyline and excellent humor. This is one short adventure you won’t be able to forget.
