Can Detective Conan crack the case…while trapped in a kid’s body? When ace high school detective Jimmy Kudo is fed a mysterious substance by a pair of nefarious men in black—poof! He is physically transformed into a first grader. Until Jimmy can find a cure for his miniature malady, he takes on the pseudonym Conan Edogawa and continues to solve all the cases that come his way. THE CHEF WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLDA serial killer stalks a group of people taking shelter in a snowbound mountain church.

Conan, Mr. Moore, and Amuro are on the case—but so is Wakita, the mystery-loving (and mysterious) sushi chef. Who will serve up the solution first?Then the Junior Detective League goes on a trip to forage for wild vegetables, only to stumble on a fresh corpse.

And when an antiques appraiser is murdered, Conan suspects the motive is a valuable Chinese plate. But with two forgeries at the crime scene, it’s hard to identify the real antique or the real killer!
