Book Review: The Dare Detectives, Vol. 1: The Snowpea Plot

This is volume one of Dare Detectives.

Wacky characters in wacky situations. Good ingredients for a story. Fans of Ben Caldwell's stylized characters shouldn't miss this book.

Product description from Amazon:

Reformed crook Maria Dare has assembled a team of misfits to crack the world's weirdest cases! They have brains ... they have guts ... but they don't have a clue! And in their first adventure. The Dare Detectives are finished! Rent's due and their license is suspended, but Dare's going-out-of-business festivities are interrupted by Madame Bleu - whose abominable snowmen pets are on a chef-stealing, radio-robbing, snowpea-swiping crime wave! Dare races against the clock to hunt down Madame Bleu with the help of corrupt cops and Chinatown's old crime boss. But can these bunglers really prevent the most audacious - and inexplicably convoluted - crime of the century?
