Okay, if I could be any sleuth, real or fictional, I would want to be Edgar allen Poe's detective, Dupin. Although each story is uniquem I love his subtly and mystery.

Sometimes, the most obvious spot, is the least likely, and therefore the last place you would look.

Okay, so who is your detective?

Being a teenaged girl, I'd probably go for Nancy Drew also - gorgeous, courageous and squeaky cool with a full support team, plus rich dad providing airfare to all sorts of exotic locales. She knows everything and if she doesn't she learns fast. Also Nan and her friends have a healthy appreciation for good food. I mean they eat a lot. Seriously.

I have a soft spot for Ian Rankin's Rebus too.

Well, the name gives away my favorite, but I have to put in a plug for the two gentlemen who got me into detective novels in the first place... the Hardy Boys! And despite his bumbling character, Chet too...

And one more plug for Encyclopedia Brown! Who else solves cases at the dinner table?

Oh, Inspector Gadget! One of my favorite shows growing up... of course, with all of his accessories that would make even Q jealous, it was still Penny and Brain who solved the mysteries, but you have to respect them for letting their dad/master take all the credit each time...

Amelia Peabody, she doesn't think before she jumps into a case with both feet.

I would like a cross between Sherlock Holmes and Magnum P.I.

Smart and tough is the way to go.

I would like to be Nancy Drew.
The books are great!
Who's a teenage girl and wouldn't want to be her?
Traveling all over the place, meeting new people, and helping others.
Wow, I unintentionally made her sound kind of like a super hero didn't I?

ROFL about inspector gadget...I couldn't bring myself to watch the non-animated movie version with Matthew Broderick..go go ruined childhood!

Mine would have to be Spenser from the Robert B Parker series. Ex-boxer beer afficionado named for an olde english poet. Plus...dude can cook.
