How do you use the name of the animal that the skull belongs to to figure out what word doesn't belong?

If it helps, I haven't conclusively solved the prior couple of steps (I am not 100% sure of the island so can't confirm the subsequent bits), but I am pretty sure I know what the animal is simply by looking at the letters of the words. Now I just have to actually take the effort to check each word to work out the odd word out.

If you find the building which he enters, and they say that apart from this building there are only another 2 buildings that are in sight, and these buildings are 10 stories high.
So just find the building he enters and then go to google maps to see what buildings are nearby that are 10 stories high.
That's how I did it anyway.
To find the word that doesn't fit with the name of the skull, check each word and see if you can spell the word using the letters from the skull. I found only one word that cant do that.
Let me know if you need help with any other operations....
How far are you?

Dude, it's taking me longer to grasp this then I would admit, but it's a challenge - which is refreshing for a change. And that creates some expectation for me.. Wanna see where it goes... Fall in if you have any tips? Stuck on opp. 4

Put what island you found in a spoiler. If you haven't found it, it's about 800 miles from Washington D.C., and remember the line you drew from take off to the monument.

I still haven't confirmed the island or publication or building(s), but have moved on after finding the word (I was trying to hint at the method above rather than totally give it away).
I have solutions for all the steps from the animal skull to where you make the cross over the country... and am reading the story to get to the next step.

I can't even start, since the book no longer seems to be available on Amazon. There's a page on Goodreads, and the links I've tried so far to various resellers all turn up nothing.

Can confirm that I'm in the same position as carlwebb. Tried searching everywhere for any other online copies and found nada.

The books no longer active or I'd offer to help. Did you actually purchase the book or was it a free e-book because if it was free maybe you could give out a pdf of it? If it was paid I'm guessing that would be illegal for the forums.

I purchased it on Amazon. I do have a text version of it if you want it.
