There was a, ummm, either a novella or a novelette, I'm not going to
count the words myself and the book isn't handy, in one of Lackey's
Valdemar anthologies which is quite obviously a Scooby-Doo pastiche,
right down to a horse-drawn Mystery Machine which then shows up in one
of the later-published novels under a different guise.
