What is Flush about?

When Noah Underwood’s father is jailed for sinking a casino boat, Noah and his younger sister, Abbey, discover why he took such drastic action: the boat’s owner is dumping sewage into the Florida Keys. Determined to clear their father’s name and protect the polluted waters, the siblings investigate the crooked businessman and gather evidence. With help from some unlikely allies, they devise a risky plan to expose the truth—but stopping the illegal dumping may prove even harder than they imagined.
