Squirm
by Carl Hiaasen
Some facts about Billy Dickens:
He once saw a biker swerve across the road in order to run over a snake.
Later, that motorcycle somehow ended up at the bottom of a canal.
Billy isn't the type to let things go.
Some facts about Billy's family:
They've lived in six different Florida towns because Billy's mom always insists on getting a house near a bald eagle nest.
Billy's older sister is dating a jerk. It's a mystery.
Billy's dad left when he was four, and Billy knows almost nothing about him.
* 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.
