About the Book

I, Timmy Failure, am a detective. I am so famous that there have been seven books written about my life. And now there's a movie. But the public's appetite for information about me is unending. And so I have agreed to tell my story about how I cam to be the greatest detective in the world.

Book Synopsis

The prequel to the New York Times best-selling series that's now a movie on Disney+!
Timmy Failure is not just any detective--he is the greatest detective in his town, perhaps the nation. He is so famous that there have been seven books written about his life. Plus a movie. And so he has agreed to provide the world with his extraordinary origin story, as dictated to his biographer and best friend, Charles "Rollo" Tookus.
New York Times best-selling author Stephan Pastis is back with the hilariously heartwarming tale of how it all started for our favorite clueless detective--including how he got that red scarf!
