A perplexing task. A mystery to solve. Can Putney save Stumpy's hatchlings in time?
Just when things seem to be going right for Putney, another bombshell drops as news spreads that the babies of local legend Stumpy-a 3-legged 400-pound loggerhead sea turtle-are doomed to almost certain death from being lured inland by the bright porch lights of the house behind the nest, easy targets for predators when the sun rises.
Putney has less than ten days to figure out a way to save Stumpy's babies. Just as she starts to make progress, things get worse. Sam-the enigmatic artificial intelligence behind Putney's magic eyePad-goes missing after stumbling across the trail of an international hacker, 'the Ghost, ' who is after Sam's technology.
Can Putney help Sam and come up with a solution to save Stumpy's babies in time? The clock is ticking...
