Submitted by Garrett Ratliff

Rufus DID write CAIUS IS A DUMBBELL on his tablet. The real question is, however, did he rob and tie-up his teacher, Xantippus? Most importantly, did he write CAIUS IS A DUMBBELL on the temple wall? This humorous mystery is an excellent story about seven boys trying to find out who ACTUALLY wrote on the temple wall. Detectives in Togas is a great book and will keep you in suspense.
