**Canon.** This entry is written from inside the CharliVerse, so its people and companies are fictional. Behind the scenes says what is real.

**The Case of the Missing Spotlight** is the first announced adventure of [Mr Mesure](https://charli.info/charlipedia/mr-mesure/) and [Mademoiselle Miss](https://charli.info/charlipedia/mademoiselle-miss/).

## The case

One evening, in a perfectly respectable sitting room, the spotlight goes out. Mr Mesure treats the loss as a theatrical catastrophe and launches an investigation. Mademoiselle Miss is on hand to help and seems remarkably unconcerned.

“Two cats. One missing spotlight. A very important investigation.”

## Behind the scenes

The comic is written and its characters created by Charlotte Joanne, and published by Blind Ant Comics. It is announced as a six-page illustrated adventure for children aged 5–6, coming Christmas 2026.
