Bookroo's summary

Teddy Fitzroy faces his wildest mystery yet when a 500-pound dinosaur skull disappears from a secret dig on his friend Sage's ranch. With no footprints and millions at stake, everyone is a suspect, including FunJungle's owner. Meanwhile, Teddy's girlfriend Summer is on the trail of a black market reptile ring, and the Barksdale twins are in trouble again. As Teddy dives into these tangled mysteries, danger and chaos lurk at every turn. Can he uncover the truth before it's too late?

From the publisher

In the latest novel in New York Times bestselling author Stuart Gibbs’s FunJungle series, Teddy Fitzroy returns as FunJungle’s resident sleuth to solve his most improbable mystery yet–with a victim that’s 65 million years old. Teddy was all set for a campout at his friend Sage’s family ranch–but then Sage gets terrible news: The skull of a rare dinosaur that was being excavated on his property has mysteriously vanished overnight in the middle of a rainstorm, even though it weighed 500 pounds. Not a single footprint has been left behind. Since the dinosaur was top secret, the police don’t believe anyone outside the dig could have stolen it. A T-rex skull can sell for millions of dollars, and everyone is a suspect–including J.J. McCracken, the owner of FunJungle. Meanwhile, Teddy’s old foes, the Barksdale twins, have gotten into trouble with an illegally purchased anaconda, and Teddy’s girlfriend Summer wants to find out who’s behind the local trade in black market reptiles. The two cases will drag Teddy into more danger and chaos than ever before, in this mystery that’s stranger than fiction.
