  11. What's unique about the setting of Flush is that Noah and Abbey live in a small community so they are able to ride bikes all around the area to help solve the mystery, which enhances the story. Although it makes it less suspensful because you know that the kids are able to get everywhere and not have to go to great lengths to do so, which kind of takes away from the story. What also enhances the story is that Noah and Abbey work together as a team to solve the mystery but you can still sense some brother and sister rivolry.

  12. adding on to what hannah said, its a smaller town so noah and abbey can just go around on their own without having to worry about getting lost, so they can find out more things than just sitting at home trying to find things on the computer

  13. The unique setting is that they live in florida and in a small communty in Florida, so they can get around to a lot of places. It has enhanced the story because they have to solve the mystery and around the town about the florida keys getting polluted by the casino boat.

  14. The unique thing about the setting of Flush is how it takes place on a beach and around a beach area. This enhances the story because it makes the mood feel calm but what is happening in the story is not calm, it is exciting.

  15. What is unique about FLUSH takes place by the ocean. Since it is easy to put stuff in. People can throw stuff in the ocean that they are not suppose to.

  16. Flush's setting is unique because it takes place inside a jail, a house, a dock and an another house. It is a small town and so Noah and Abbey can go almost any where in the town with out there mom having to worry about them. The setting takes away from the story because even though it is such as small town there are a lot of places that they go to, so that there are a lot of places that are writen about in the book that you have to remember.

  18. FLUSH's setting is unique because it is in Florida by the ocean. The boats outin the ocean are polluting the water so it hurts the environment for animals and plants who live in the ocean.
