The Twilight Rescue

Sophie Cooper, a middle school student, lives in a village of tiny houses twenty years in the future. People are struggling to survive in a world where a warming climate and shifting geographical features present many challenges. Sophie's father, Ben, is an aerospace engineer who has been missing for many months. Ben's fellow scientists suspect that he was kidnapped by government forces and being held against his will. Sophie, along with the Ben's colleagues, and Ainsley, an android who becomes Sophie's friend, set out to rescue Ben. The band of rescuers encounter many roadblocks as they attempt their rescue mission. Help comes from a very unexpected source. Will they succeed in rescuing Ben? They all return home safely? One thing is certain: Sophie's view of the world is about to change forever.
