Walter R. Brooks, Freddy and Mr. Camphor . Any time I hear «mystery» or «detective» and «pig» in the same description, I immediately think of Walter Brooks’ «Freddy» books. There are 26 books in the series (originally written between 1927 and 1958), and most of them have been reprinted.

Freddy thinks his new job as caretaker of the wealthy Mr. Camphor’s lakeside estate will be pretty easy. However, when strange things start happening around the house, Freddy must use his detective skills to get to the bottom of things. Front cover shows Freddy relaxing in a lounge chair on the deck of a houseboat, underneath a striped awning.
