When Roy Eberhardt moves to Florida, the last thing he expects is to get tangled in a mystery involving running boys, pancake houses, alligators, and a colony of endangered burrowing owls. But soon, he’s pulled into a wild adventure to save the owls' home—and learns that standing up for what’s right isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it.
