William and Alex are on their third mission together: they must investigate the poaching of rhinos on Aunt Ada’s farm in the Bushveld. Very topical plot, and full of humour, as readers have come to expect from this duo!

Dogtective William
and the Poachers
.....
She smiled at me in that motherly way that was supposed to make me feel cute, but not as clever as I might think I am. “I’m sure you’ll also get an opportunity to go there one day. At least you’ve already been to South America, and Mauritius too!”
Little did she know that I was familiar with many of the great European cities, while South America still remained a mystery to me. My parents were under the impression that I went there on a soccer tour; meanwhile, I was dodging that lout Brumbum and his henchmen in a wild chase across Europe. And Mauritius is boring compared to Tromelin Island, where William and I found one of the largest pirate treasures ever.
