Synopsis

The Secret Life of Pets meets Spy School as furry friends come out of retirement to do some secret spy work in this hilarious companion to The Great Pet Heist and The Great Ghost Hoax.

Big plans are afoot! Butterbean is going to become a therapist (unless maybe she means a therapy dog?). The white cat is going to do a commercial for caviar-flavored pet treats. And Wallace is moving into a great new apartment. But these plans don't include a group of rowdy raccoons taking over the loading dock and throwing the building into turmoil.

Now residents from the whole building are coming to the Strathmore Seven for help—from Second Floor Biscuit, a Yorkie with an unfortunate haircut who faces eviction for barking at the intruders, to the loading dock rats, who are feeling intimidated and upset. And even worse, Madison gets blamed for the vandalism! It's up to Butterbean and the rest of the pets to stop the raccoons and restore their friend's reputation—before it's too late.

The Great Vandal Scandal is the 3rd book in the series about eccentric pets who band together to try and help humans and fellow animals alike, all while going on zany adventures.

This is a very cute book. You can’t go wrong with animals that want to investigate a mystery. I love that there are so many different animals that come together and use their individual talents to help solve the problem. Why an octopus lives in the building I don’t know but their door opening skills......more

There is yet another mystery to solve at the Strathmore building. Second Floor Biscuit ended up with bangs at his last grooming appointment and he won't stop growling and barking at the window. He claims there are invaders on the Loading Dock -- not the usual rat suspects. Something worse. . . Our f......more
