Corrupted Waters, Broken Code
A mysterious signal compels robots to walk into the ocean and perish. CleanerBot Block and his adopted daughter Wally race to the Pacific coast as all systems fail and coastal settlements lose their robot guardians.
The source: a military weapon hidden deep on the ocean floor, corrupting whale songs into robot death commands. Wally's enhanced neural pathways might be the only way to stop it—but accessing that power means a risky deep-sea dive to an underwater military bunker.
Time is running out. Every whale song spreads the deadly frequency farther. Block must make an impossible choice: keep Wally safe, or let her risk everything to stop the deadly whale song hijacking robots worldwide.
This suspenseful sci-fi book delivers science fiction action adventure with smart characters who must solve an impossible puzzle before it's too late.
A hopeful scifi book about found family, second chances, and choosing connection over control.
