When you put on a mask and fight for what's right, secrets are your stock and trade. They protect you, and those around you, from those that would seek to end your quest for justice. But when those secrets are compromised, the shield can become a sword in the hands of a vengeful enemy. What will happen when that moment comes for our heroes? When the mask slips, just a little? And what fury will come crashing through The Hidden Door? - Length 27min, Size 9.1mb

  Sometimes crime is so easy to spot. The thug in the alleyway, the mugger on the street... And other times the strangest little things can turn out to be the most sinister. Say... five hundred pounds of bananas that vanish into thin air. Or a load of plastic coconuts. Crimes on a theme? A new menace taking shape? Or is it a simple case of... Monkeyshines?

To say that Jack and Trixie were surprised to get a call from Braithwaites, the biggest spit-and-polish detective agency in town, was putting it mildly. But to be invited to dine with the Gentleman Detective himself at his Club? That's just downright shocking - or at least very very suspicious. But if Big Larry Braithwaite thinks he can con Jack Justice into taking a train wreck of a case off his hands by stuffing our hero so full of prime rib that he can't see straight... well... yeah, that'll probably work.
