Roy Eberhardt is a 12 year old boy who recently moved from Montana to Florida. He has a tough time fitting in getting bullied on his first day and having very few friends. However, Roy is made curious by a running boy he sees on the way to school. The more Roy investigates the more he learns about the boy's true purpose which is to save owls from having their homes be destroyed (and themselves put in danger) by the construction of a new pancake restaurant.
So together , Roy and the boy nicknamed mullet fingers band together with mullet finger's sister to save the owls. However, it won't be easy as they have to contend with law officials watching the site, and the CEO of the chain of restaurants who will stop at nothing to get the location built to make a profit. However, perhaps by making their voices heard Roy and his new friends can make a difference and save the innocent owls.
