Bookroo's summary

In a bustling apartment building, Butterbean the dog and her furry friends face a new challenge: a gang of raccoons causing chaos. With eviction threats looming over Biscuit the Yorkie and Madison wrongly accused of vandalism, the pets must band together to restore peace. Can they outwit the raccoons and save their home before it's too late? Join the Strathmore Seven on a wild adventure filled with unexpected twists and daring rescues.

From the publisher

The Secret Life of Pets meets Spy School as furry friends come out of retirement to do some secret spy work in this hilarious companion to The Great Pet Heist and The Great Ghost Hoax. Big plans are afoot! Butterbean is going to become a therapist (unless maybe she means a therapy dog?). The white cat is going to do a commercial for caviar-flavored pet treats. And Wallace is moving into a great new apartment. But these plans don’t include a group of rowdy raccoons taking over the loading dock and throwing the building into turmoil. Now residents from the whole building are coming to the Strathmore Seven for help–from Second Floor Biscuit, a Yorkie with an unfortunate haircut who faces eviction for barking at the intruders, to the loading dock rats, who are feeling intimidated and upset. And even worse, Madison gets blamed for the vandalism! It’s up to Butterbean and the rest of the pets to stop the raccoons and restore their friend’s reputation–before it’s too late.
