This interactive story brings many story elements that are found in classic mystery films and novels. This story deals with the effects of how telling a lie can lead to another lie and to another lie, until it ultimately it catches up to you.

One day a pretty girl, Rosalinaa Prettyface, walks into Det. Davis's office while he is away only to find Marty there. Rosalina thinking Marty is a real detective tells about her plight: Someone has stole her Macadamia Nut Cookie! Marty having fallen quicky for Prettyface pretends to be a real Detective and takes on the case! This lie only gets bigger and bigger and lands Marty and Rosalina in many bad situations. Will the Cookie Collector collect some more cookies? Who is the Cookie Collector? Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar? Was it Det. Davis? Chief Inchargeman? Rosalina's close friends? Officers Chip or Rooney? Det. Coolman? Did Rosalina steal the cookie herself? Will Marty be able to clear up his lies and solve the case before lunch time? And why does Marty like pie so much? All these questions and more are will be answered in Marty McGillicuddy and the Case of the Missing Macadamia!
