The seventh installment in #1 NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Gordon Korman's Swindle series!
UNLEASHED: freed from restraint, running wild, not being held back by anyone or anything . . .
Luthor, a former attack dog, is supposed to be on his best behavior now that he’s in the care of Savannah, a girl who’s easily a dog’s best friend. But every time a certain truck passes by Savannah’s house, Luthor goes into attack mode — and chaos follows.
Meanwhile, Griffin Bing is locked in the fight of his life with his archenemy, Darren Vader. Both are trying to win an invention contest — and will stop at nothing to be victorious.
A runaway dog. Some majorly strange inventions. A mysterious neighbor. A stolen object of great value. These are a few of the ingredients in UNLEASHED, Gordon Korman’s latest Swindle mystery. Like a Doberman with a mission in mind, there’s no holding this story back!

From School Library Journal
Gr 5–7—In this seventh book of the wacky and wildly popular mystery series, Griffin Bing and his friends take part in a competition for aspiring inventors. High jinks and humor abound in this fast-paced, dialogue-heavy adventure when the government gets involved. Korman also folds in some light commentary on gender and stereotypes, with a bit of a rift developing in Griffin's social circle over his assumption that tech-savvy Melissa will use her skills to help him rather than focus on her own invention. Fans are in for a rip-roaring good time.
