‘Sally leapt out of bed, snagging her walking stick… “What? Who’s there?” She tip-toed to peer around the curtain that served as a wall to her bedroom. Nothing grabbed her. “Rodney! Did you hear a deafening, spine-chilling, growling screech?” Rodney, her old man doll with artificial intelligence, bleeped. “Yes, I did, milady. It came from outside. I was searching the internet to identify it. But I found nothing even close. I thought maybe it was a jaguar or mountain lion…’ It’s another page turning journey through Sally’s mysteriously misadventure filled life. What -- or who -- has invaded this 87-year-old spunky woman's adobe igloo and desert compound this time? But this time the culprit is threatening to disintegrate the entire valley -- and every living organism in it. So, dear readers, what has creeped into Sally's normally safe and quiet as a caterpillar valley? Will Cozy Mae stay with Sally or spring back home to Texas? How will she get her precious, precocious bots back? Will the stupid criminal ever learn? Will Sally and Rodney, along with newfound Cousin Cozy Mae and her sidekicks solve the mystery of the pyromaniacal screecher before the valley is turned to ashes?
