Publisher's Synopsis
This is not just a story about animal cruelty; this is a story about friendship. After two men attempt to capture a wild crocodile from a Jamaican river using nothing but a mongrel dog as bait, all animals from the community of Iron Bridge band together to revolt. But the introduction of a wild crocodile is just the beginning of the terror that runs through Iron Bridge. Just as the excitement over the crocodile starts to die down, an even more horrific incident has shattered the Iron Bridge animal community. Realizing they are defenseless against the calamity that has fallen upon them, the helpless animals must enlist the help of Clifton, a ten-year-old handicapped boy that possesses the unique gift of talking with animals. Now, the young boy and the motley crew of animals must race against time before the community of Iron Bridge is devoid of animal life forever.
