Bookroo's summary

When their parents kidnap a famous poodle for ransom, two young siblings must rescue the unhelpful canine star. Can they outsmart their own family and save the day, or will the spoiled pooch foil their plans? Join the adventure filled with barks, howls, and unexpected twists as the kids navigate a world of crime and comedy.

From the publisher

When their parents steal a Hollywood star (a white poodle) to hold it for ransom, our young heroes leap into action. Too bad the spoiled star will not raise a paw to help. Barks and howls will be the result of anyone reading Book Two of Good Crooks. Author Mary Amato is a star of state master and children’s choice lists and returns to the age category of her popular Riot Brothers chapter book series with this funny, silly new series.
