Snakes, grizzlies, a missing dad, a menacing drone... Carl Hiaasen delivers a wickledly funny, slightly subversive tale in his latest New York Times bestseller.Â
Some facts about Billy Dickens: Â Â *Â Â He once saw a biker swerve across the road in order to run over a snake. Â Â *Â Â Later, that motorcycle somehow ended up at the bottom of a canal. Â Â *Â Â Billy isn't the type to let things go.
Some facts about Billy's family: Â Â *Â Â They've lived in six different Florida towns because Billy's mom insists on getting a house near a bald eagle nest. Â Â *Â Â Billy's dad left when he was four and is a total mystery. Â Â *Â Â Billy has just found his dad's address--in Montana.
This summer, Billy will fly across the country, hike a mountain, float a river, dodge a grizzly bear, shoot down a spy drone, save a neighbor's cat, save an endangered panther, and then try to save his own father.
