4-6Orca Currents series.
Trevor, Robyn, and Nick are at a University of Calgary summer science camp. After learning about missing research notes, the kids become embroiled in a mystery--and do some research of their own. Although character development is flimsy, the story's action scenes and introduction to the concept of biopiracy (corporations stealing native resources to create and patent medicines) will hold readers' interest.
