Cheeky, a fun-loving river otter, and Charlemagne, a persnickety pine marten, are entrusted with a dangerous mission to transport an herbal antidote to the furry animals of the North Country -- without it they will not survive! Join Cheeky and Charlemagne, and their scout, Bandit -- a humorous woodpecker -- on their many adventures: navigating raging rivers, hiking mountains, crossing paths with a mountain lion, surviving a blinding blizzard, discovering the perilous danger of hidden traps, and dodging poisonous whizzer darts. Will they arrive in time to save the Great Protector of the North Country?
