Help! Mrs. Starch is missing! When their biology teacher disappears on a class field trip to Black Vine Swamp in the Florida Everglades, Nick and Marta have to find out what’s happened. Everyone thinks the class troublemaker, Smoke, had something to do with it, and he does-just not in the way they think.
There is way more going on in the swamp than anyone knows! Nick and Marta have to deal with an eccentric eco-avenger,a stuffed rat named Chelsea, a wannabe Texas oilman, a singing substitute teacher, and why is that Florida panther in the swamp so ticked off? Nick and Marta find out a company is doing some illegal activity in the swamp that will destroy part of the natural environment and home for so many wild creatures there. Can they stop them in time? Does this have anything to do with Mrs. Starch’s disappearance? To find the answers, read Scat by Carl Hiaasen.
