Oliver 'Spaghetti-O' Jones's dad is about to be jailed for a crime he didn't commit, and Oliver believes the only way to save him is with the help of his favourite lucha-libre wrestler turned action star, Tito the Bonecrusher. Together with his best friend, Brianna (a.k.a. 'Brain'), and their new ally Paul 'Popcorn' Robards, Oliver devises a madcap plan to spring his dad from a Florida detention centre. Heartwarming and hilarious, this book looks at what it takes to be a hero - and what happens when you realise that saving the day might not always be possible.
