The kids from Gordon Korman's book Swindle are on another quest to right a wrong. Samantha's capuchin monkey, Cleo, is missing. After a school field trip to a floating zoo, Samantha finds Cleo among the animals aboard. The owner, Mr. Nastase, claims that the monkey's name is Eleanor, and he has a bill of sale to prove it. Samantha is certain that the monkey is Cleo, and is also upset at the horrible conditions in which the animals live. Griffin, who always has a plan, creates "Operation Zoobreak." It's simple. Each of the friends will use their particular talent to help rescue Cleo from the "floating dungeon." Can a group of eleven-year-olds sneak on board and rescue Cleo? Enjoy the humor and excitement as they try to pull off this mission.
