Synopsis
When a strange man with a fake beard drives through two, ten-year-old Ole and his friend Andreas are on the case. The duo, who fancy themselves to be a young Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, are hot on the trail of the suspicious man. They hope to use their razor-sharp deductions to solve the case without the help of the police...until Ole stumbles into a trap.
