"Danny Again: Further Adventures of 'Danny the Detective'" by Vera C. Barclay is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Danny Moor, an adventurous young boy and member of the Wolf Cubs, as he navigates several escapades, including repairing the stained-glass window of a local church damaged during a war raid, and engaging in thrilling investigations such as tracking a suspicious man in his village. Throughout his adventures, Danny embodies bravery, resourcefulness, and a strong sense of duty to his friends and community. At the start of the book, the village of Dutton has recovered from a Zeppelins raid that resulted in a bomb destroying a cherished stained-glass window. Feeling responsible for the loss, Danny vows to replace it with the help of his fellow Cubs. As they brainstorm ways to raise the necessary funds, Danny learns that a German piano tuner named Mr. Bulky is under suspicion for espionage. This piques Danny's curiosity and sets him off on a detective adventure, leading to various escapades that test his resolve and cleverness. The opening chapters establish Danny's character as determined and noble, laying the groundwork for the exciting story that ensues.
