Review:
This book actually has two stories in it, "The Supermarket Mystery" and "The Great Pie Robbery". It is aimed at slightly older children, I would say 4+, the illustrations are very 70's but that doesn't detract from the book. Both stories follow a pair of bumbling police officers who always seem to stumble upon the solution to the crime they're investigating. An enjoyable book to read, we get asked to read it reasonably often.
