Let's play a game this week!

Change one letter of the title of a book (add a letter, remove a letter, or swap one letter for a different letter) to create a new book, and then briefly describe the changed plot.

I'll start:

Leviathan Rakes: to hide from authorities, Holden, Naomi, and the rest of the Roci crew go undercover as landscapers.

The hosts walk us through renovating old houses with good overall foundations and layouts.
