She's about to invent a genius solution.

But when her AI pal goes AWOL, can she find her friend while designing a life-saving device?

Twelve-year-old Putney Hicks is on high alert. News has spread about a rare, three-legged sea turtle who successfully dug and laid a nest of eggs, but there's a problem: the bright lights of a nearby porch could lead the vulnerable babies away from the ocean and into danger.

With less than ten days before the eggs hatch, Putney is working around the clock on a brilliant prototype to save the tiny turtles from certain death.

Just as she's getting close, disaster strikes - her beloved AI sidekick disappears without a trace.

With the clock ticking, can Putney track down her missing friend and finish her invention in time to save the sea turtle babies?

The Sea Turtle Spy Project is the fast-paced, action-packed fourth book in the Putney Hicks Inventor Adventures series - a thrilling, STEM-driven adventure that blends problem-solving with real-world science, all while delivering heart and suspense.
