Twelve-year-old Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt Fitzroy has murder on his hands and trouble on his tail. He believes that Henry, the hippopotamus at the brand-new FunJungle, has been murdered. The zoos top brass claim the hippo went belly up the natural way, but Teddy and his feisty friend Summer McCraken have other ideas. Could the culprit be FunJungles animal-hating head of operations? Or is it FunJungles owner—Summers dad—a man who is much more concerned about money than animal welfare? The deeper Teddy and Summer dig, the more danger theyre in—because when it comes to hippo homicide, the truth cant be caged!
