Jack Sprat is a peeper, a gumshoe, a bloodhound for rent, a freelance
flatfoot, a man on the case, a hired nose -- a detective, actually, and the
only detective in Fairyland. So when femme fatale Red Riding Hood hires him
to find Grandma, he knows something is up (well, actually his secretary
Tinkerbell figures it out first). Red has teamed up with Prince Charming in
order to trick Jack into learning the password for the fairy godmother's
magic wand. In the end, Jack figures it all out with the help of his
friends, Mr. X, really Rumpelstiltskin; Humpty Dumpty, a good egg; and
Pinocchio, who has a nose for news.
