For ages 9-14 Sci-Fi Adventure Secret Insect Societies Government Conspiracies Unlikely Friendships
In a lab beneath the city, Professor Alexander Lex-quirky, brilliant, and always late for lunch-accidentally transfers the contents of his top-secret research into the mind of a curious ladybug.
That bug? Now she talks, thinks, and learns at lightning speed. Her name? Luma.
Her File? SILK 7X.
Her mission? Unknown... even to her.
When news of Luma's existence leaks, government agents close in. Professor Lex is captured. And Luma discovers she's not the only enhanced insect underground-there's an entire society watching from the shadows.
But some insects don't want peace.
Some want power.
And one-known only as Theta-wants to rewrite the world itself.
Can a ladybug with oversized wings, a sarcastic streak, and a human friend change the course of evolution? Or will the world squash what it doesn't understand?
A fast-paced adventure full of hidden labs, insect spies, high-tech tunnels, and one unforgettable bug.
