While holidaying in the Seychelles, Tim ventures to a well-guarded private island, where he learns of a devious plot that threatens the endangered local giant tortoise. Book #4

Quick Summary

Tim is on holiday in the Seychelles when he ventures to a guarded private island and discovers a devious plot to harm the endangered giant tortoises that live there, in this fourth book of the Grk mystery series. The story explores wildlife conservation, brave decision-making, and the tension of infiltrating a suspicious operation to protect vulnerable animals. If your kid likes the animal-rescue stakes in "The Dog That Served the Country" or the globe-trotting mysteries of "The 39 Clues" series, they'll be drawn into Tim's dangerous undercover work. This 44,664-word book with a 4.7 AR level works best for fourth and fifth graders who enjoy animal adventure mysteries.
