Cole Cheetum would like nothing more than to quietly tinker in his lab on the Wildwood, NJ boardwalk. His past inventions and quirky personality have earned him a warm place in the heart of America's popular culture.
A disturbing personal incident and his insatiable curiosity take Cole out of the lab and into a high stakes mystery where he meets Jenna Leigh. She had been hiding behind an ordinary persona, but with Cole's help she decides to finally unleash her unique untapped powers.
Together, they, and their intrepid team of techies, crisscross the country, racing time to trap a vicious psychopath before he can destroy the world.
Will her talents, his ingenuity and a bio-robotic worm named Willie be enough to save us all?
