Synopsis

A thousand honest travelers. One lying suitcase. You have twenty seconds.

Every plane that lands pours out hundreds of strangers, and every one of them gets the same friendly question at the booth. This book is about what that question is really doing - and about the rookie who believed the wrong thing about it. Nervous doesn't mean guilty. Doesn't match means look closer.

Ride along with the officers, scientists, and dogs of an international airport: the beagle who found a smuggled pig's head, the passport that failed under ultraviolet light, the sweater that came home with a dead father's clothes and the officer who did the right thing, the computer that read your trip before you flew - and the honest argument about whether it should.

Crack it open and discover:

• Why great officers are fast, and why suspicion breaks an airport
• What a detector dog can and truly cannot do
• The five hidden defenses inside your own passport
• What travelers can actually do when the border gets it wrong
• Your turn in the hot seat: the dog alerts twice, both bags are clean - now what?

Illustrated narrative nonfiction for curious readers - Ages 10-13. Every true case sourced. Includes a glossary, a "Test Your Knowledge" quiz, source notes, and an index.
