Antsy Bonano's third adventure (The Schwa Was Here; Antsy Does Time) is set aboard a luxury cruise ship, an ideal place for a crime and a caper. The crime involves smuggling illegal immigrants from Mexico into the United States; the caper includes disguises, pseudonyms, and shipboard parkour. Just as in the previous books, the scattergun jokes are both relentless and snort-worthy.
