"Some facts about Billy Dickens: He once saw a biker swerve across the road in order to run over a snake. Later, that motorcycle somehow ended up at the bottom of a canal. Billy isn't the type to let things go. Some facts about Billy's family: They've lived in six different Florida towns because Billy's mom insists on getting a house near a bald eagle nest. Billy's dad left when he was four and is a total mystery. Billy has just found his dad's address -- in Montana. A few things you might predict from these facts: Billy's about to get on a plane. Montana is a long way from Florida, in more ways than one. A few things Billy did not predict: His dad's secret life involves grizzly bears. And spy drones. And a dead parrot named Hubert. This will all make a strange kind of sense."--.
