Jamie is determined that nothing—not even his annoyingly popular younger brother Seth—is going to spoil his fun at a mountain biking camp in the backcountry.

Nothing except stumbling on a giant grow-op in the woods, that is. And watching their fellow campers get captured by violent drug dealers. And working with Seth to figure out a way to save them without getting caught themselves.

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for middle-grade readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don't like to read!

      Grades 4-6 A trip to a mountain bike camp in British Columbia's North Shore Mountains takes on extra drama for five riders when they stumble on a hidden pot farm along a side trail. As in other titles in the Orca Sports line, there's also plenty of sports action, just enough specialized jargon to provide flavor, and some character conflicthere, between two teenage brothers whose formerly close relationship is starting to fray due to personality differences. Climaxed by a melodramatic rescue from armed thugs, and then the arrival of a surprise villain (just ahead of the police), this quickly paced tale offers multiple whoop-de-doos (look it up) for Matt Christopher fans and older reluctant readers.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2011, American Library Association.)
