Forget heroes, meet Shady the sneaky squirrel thief and his
relentless rivals! A hilarious, highly illustrated, black-and-white
crime caper for readers of 6+ by Nick East, illustrator of Toto
the Ninja Cat.

While normal squirrels are out stashing nuts for winter, Shady
loves collecting treasure. The shiny kind. The kind that belongs
to someone else. Yes, Shady is a shameless crook, and that's exactly
how he's landed back in Badun Island Prison. There's only one
way out... escape!
Unfortunately, tortoise crime boss Naughty Tortie wants Shady
for her latest job: stealing the Golden Acorn of Destiny from Big
City Bank. And Shady can't refuse. Reunited with his old partner
in crime, Roxy 'the Paws' the raccoon - and a series of criminal
critters who may be heroes or rivals - Shady is off on the mega-heist
of his career... But will he actually get his paws on the loot?

Starring a squirrel supervillain and a hilarious cast of unexpected
animal crimelords...
The perfect read for fans of Toto the Ninja Cat, Bad
Guys, The Terrible Trio and Grimwood, with the
anarchic energy of Dog Man and Bunny vs Monkey.
Packed with Nick East's stunning illustrations throughout in
black and white.
