Marvin bliver dog overtalt til at tage sagen og beder hende komme igen dagen efter.Næste gang Marvin ser den lille kanariefugl er det på det billede, politiet fremviser af en forsvunden fugl. Hun er blevet pip-nappet. Lige som alle de andre. Marvin vil opklare sagen og finde fuglenapperen.Privatdetektiv Due indeholder alt, hvad en rigtig detektiv-billedbog skal indeholde. En masse små spor drysset ud over det hele og et uventet plot. Bogens univers og sprog er inspireret af de store detektivfortællinger, men tilpasset en verden af fugle.
