'Saving hundreds of rats from the dissecting knife is only the start of the Green Guerrillas' campaign. Their leader is Tess Robertson, a genius at fighting environmental pollution and injustice, and equally brilliant at fighting with friends and family at the same time. Now Tess is planning her biggest battle yet. She has to stop a billion-dollar paper mill from being set up in town, and pumping dioxin, one of the world's most toxic pollutants, into the air. And all she has to help her are the three Green Guerrillas, a reckless kid sister and one dark-eyed, karate-kicking photographer who can't take "no" for an answer.' (Libraries Australia record).
