Josh first found a falcon which they almost endangered into the woods two weeks ago.


At that time, there were three baby falcons into the nest. From that day on, he had been watching them carefully.


Then he told Dink and Ruth about that and took them into the woods where the falcon’s nest was.


A few minutes later, they arrived cleaning in the woods.


They looked over the nest with Josh’s binoculars sliently, but there was nothing in the nest.


They presented various assumes why they vanished.


Finally, they went to the Mrs, Wong’s pet shop and pleaded for help to report that case.


They told her about the missing birds. Right soon she handed him the number of the DEP(Department of Environmantal Protection) and Josh called and explained what had happened to them(about the nest and the missing birds) to him whom was speaking with.


Next day morning, the three kids met again and went to the woods to look for the clues about the missing falcons.


When they almost arrived there, Mr. Curt who answered a call from Josh yesterday had already come and looked around up the falcon’s trees.


Josh told him they thought the falcons might have been stolen by someone.


But Curt said him there was no clue then he suggested them to leave the rest work to DEP so that the falcons were undisturbed by people.


And told them that he felt this case would be wrapped it up soon.


Then he said good-bye to kids and turned right away.


As the kids just started walking the other directions, Josh heard something, They stopped to walking and listened where the sound came from.


Soon he found a baby falcon who had a name tag on his legs.


But, the kids didn’t know how they should do for him.


So they hurried and went to the Mrs. Wong’s pet shop to ask for help.


They fed to the falcon and took care of him.


Ruth called his name ‘Flash’ then ask Mrs. Wong what they should do for him.


Mrs Wong right contacted Doc Henry, a veterinarian to ask for a help to check Flash’s physical condition(or vital sighs, health).


The kids hurried and took the falcon into the Doc Henry’s office.


At first, Henry first saw the tag bend on the falcon’s leg and cut it off.


Then he probed the falcon’s wings gently and found the feathers were trimmed with scissors.


Just then, Doc Henry’s assistant, Grace Lockwood came up to them and looked at Flash for a longtime, running her hands to the falcon’s back.


Suddenly, Flash bit her finger.


Henry told them that he was taking care of Flash for a few days, and then he could decide what he did for it.


he led them returned thire house.


They felt at ease with his assistance, but on the other hand, Josh wondered where the missing falcons were and wanted to know that what for the feathers were cut off by someone


Finally, they went to the Curt’s office, hopping Curt answered all the question.


But, Curt wasn’t there, so they asked a woman who worked in the DEP then right went to the his house where near the river.


When they walked through his house’s gate, they saw he was sitting on the porch.


Josh closed to him and said what happened to them until now.


Curt nodded and asked them where the falcon was and Josh answered that they took Flash into the vet’s office.


Then the kids said good-bye and walked past Ellie’s Diner.


Just then, they saw through glass Grace Lockwood who was eating lunch While watching the ‘Falconry Today’ magazine.


At that instant, she scared back at them, her eyes made them hurried away into Dink’s house.


While they had a lunch, Josh was quiet for a long time.


After a long time, he thought about Grace’s behavior in the vet’s office and Ellie’s Diner had been puzzling.


So he assumed her as a suspect who had stolen the falcons from the nest in this case.


They were went to the vet’s office again, watched her while she cured the crow.


There was a wide garden in the courtyard of the office where a various species of animals had been taking care of by Henry and Grace.


Josh asked her where Flash was. Grace walked in front of the cage covered by rug and answered he was here, pointing a new-comer’s corner of the courtyard.


She removed the cover and tapped on the side of the cage but there was no sign of life.


The falcon vanished after a lunch.


There was no one who exactly knew wherethe falcon went to.


The three kids assumed someone might had taken him away from the vet’s office.


Grace and Doc Henry investigated the cage where Flash was.


Soon they found the broken padlock on the door of the cage.


Then Dink suggested to call the cops to check any fingerprint on the woods.


Josh and Ruth thought What Grace did all of it by herself.


But Dink disagreed about their thought.


And he thought that they knew more about the peregrine falcons, they would find why someone was taking them.


So the kids said good-bye with Doc Henry and went to the library to get the falcon’s information.


Soon they found the book,“Peregrine Falcons: Royal Raptor” and knew the facts that falcons fastest birds in nature, could fly 200 miles per hour and they were easy to train.


Finally, Ruth concluded someone was stealing falcons to train to race them like dogs and horses.


Then they walked to the Ellies Diner, called Curt’s office and told him Flash was stolen by someone again.


While they were waiting for his coming, they arranged the suspect list who had known that Flash was at the vet’s office,


The names of many people were mentioned by them like Grace Lockwood, Doc Henry and Curt Striker.


Just then, Curt came into the Diner and heard lots of informations from them.


He told them that he soon found out the suspect on this case and pleaded to keep as a secret what their saying.


When the kids stepped out from Ellie’s, they saw Officer Fallon who went to the vet’s office to catch the fingerprints and said ‘Hi“.


In the vet’s office, Grace was taking care of their animals with great care.


A few minutes later, Fallon spreaded the dust on the cage, but no prints appeared.


After all, he didn’t get any clues.


Suddenly, Dink remembered the band that was on Flash’s leg and found the letters that was written on the band ‘GLKS





6-17’ through a magnifying glass.


He didn’t know about that means exactly, just thought the G, L on the band stood for Grace Lockwood!


Josh had still doubted her as a suspect so he looked forward to arresting her, but they were not enough to prove her guilty.


Officer Fallon told Josh that he would catch the suspect who was doing that and then he went back into the station.


Josh called Curt Striker’s office to ask him about that letters means, but no there.


Then the kids walked to he’s office and left the message.


At last, they went to the his cabin again, when they arrived Curt’s backyard, there was no sign of life, too.


At that time, Ruth heard something weird sound then Josh exactly knew about that sound.


It was a falcon’s tweeting sound and was coming from the shed.


They hardly crawled through into the opening to go inside of the shed.


Surprisingly, there were a dozen falcons in cages. They were right.


For the instant, the light from the window was blocked. As the kids turned their faces to look at the window, Curt Striker was glaring at them so he was real suspect in this case!


A moment later. he slammed shut the window flap and padlocked on the door so that they didn’t go out.


They tried to open the door and window but It was locked too hard.


Dink walked around the shed but he couldn’t see anything. At that time Ruth found a small hole in the roof and yelled to the others.


Josh and Dink dragged some cages over and made a platform then two boys smashed at the hole.


A hole was bigger, they could see better.


Soon they knew that the falcons in the cage all have labels like Flash and the first two letters different, but the next two are same as KS.


They right found Flash.


Suddenly, Ruth yelled and remembered what when she went to the Curt’s office, she saw a nameplate on his desk, it was written on it “Kurt Striker.”


So they thought the KS on the legs bend as in Kurt Striker and the GL as in Green Lawn.


Finally, the kids climbed out onto the roof to get out of there and climbed down to report this case to Officer Fallon.


After an hour, Cops caught Kurt Striker in Massachusetts, it was all over.


He stolen the falcons in another 3 states by the same way and trained them to the race.


Fallon said that he would have spent some time in the jail.


And Doc Henry told the kids that in fact Grace was not his assistant, but a undercover of the DEP(Ddepartments of Environmental Protection)


She assigned to Green Lawn to perform her task what to keep an eye on our falcon.


Since she started her task, she watched josh watching the falcons with his binoculars.


So first, she doubted him and thought he had taken them.


The kids finally knew why she behaved strangely like that.


Dink also wished all the falcons what had stolen by Kurt to be free.


But Grace explained them it was too hard to return the falcons to the wild that’s because they had already contacted people.


Then Josh asked Grace how about helping to set Flash’s new home in the Green Lawn Petting zoo.


And Doc Henry promised to be a supportive family.


Soon they enjoyed a ice cream and spent the happy time.
