Description
Publisher's Description of Max Booth, Future Sleuth: Chip Blip
Max and Oscar are given a pet ID microchip to identify. A rice-sized
electronic device, Max has never seen anything quite like it. Using an
ancient library book scanner, he obtains a reading from it—a mysterious
code, with the Bluggsville City logo beside it. Max and Oscar uncover
the identity of the dog it was assigned to and are determined to find
out why the chip was never implanted. Oscar, smitten by the dog in the
photo, is especially eager. When their hunt lands them at a pound for
robo-dogs, they resolve to set the dogs free. Little do they know the
chip is transmitting their location details to forces that threaten
their own freedom.
