Summary

Theodore Boone's town is under threat, from a group of corrupt men planning to build a freeway bypass and destroy countless homes.

Now 13-year-old Theo - the schoolboy lawyer destined for the courtroom - must stand up for his city and stop them. But soon the fight turns nasty, and Theo and his friends face a giant battle against the underhand crooks.

And when Theodore uncovers a terrible secret - a secret he's discovered illegally - he is torn. Should Theo stop the shady developers from breaking the law by breaking it himself?

The Theodore Boone stories are enjoyable stories. I just continue to feel that they just don't end well. I need to know what the family thought of Theo's speech, did he get their approval?
