This was an interesting read. I got fairly frustrated with Milo when he became so overly focused but that’s Milo. Would recommend this book to anyone

I love Alex and Milo!

Anytime I find an Alex Delaware audio that I’ve not heard, I jump on it. I have always been fond of Alex and Milo and the rest of the regulars. This one did not disappoint!
