Have your parents ever
threatened to throw something through your television screen because
you play too many games or watch too much TV and you don’t
turn it off the first or second or even the third time they ask?
Well, Ned didn’t really think his mom would destroy the TV
set, but when the cast-iron frying pan came flying through the living
room to hit the TV screen, his reality television show became black
dust and jagged glass and life as he knew it was over.
When
Ned’s mom suffers a nervous breakdown, he is forced into a
new life that will take him to another continent for an exciting
adventure and will bring him super-sleuth status with friends on
the Internet as they try to catch a criminal who sells wild animals
to the highest bidder. Ned is stretched and pulled in ways he never
thought possible, but he has never had more fun.
