August 2000. The summer’s an absolute scorcher. All Alex Martin wants is ice cream and a proper job, but things are about to get hotter.
The Turing-Tesla League needs her help. The League’s Director, Jonathan, has been kidnapped and the clone Finding Machine is missing. To make matters worse, Alex’s machine can’t find him. Jonathan has disappeared off the face of the earth.
Alex travels to Red Croft Lodge, the League’s HQ, and dives into the dangerous world of espionage. She joins forces with an ex-secret service agent, a teen hacker, and a mineralogist with close ties to her late father. Turns out, The Lodge holds many secrets of its own.
The clues point to a faceless mastermind, intent on exploiting the stolen Finding Machine for his own ends. Alex must uncover the truth, before her father’s legacy and the League are destroyed. Forever.
