Saving the Sands

Alex and company returned to Miner’s Hook as conquering heroes.

But their job wasn’t done.

There was the matter of the dark mark on their hands and the leader of the Salt Flat Bandits to deal with.

Once Miner’s Hook was free, they would move on to Night City. Reaching the city before school started was all Alex wanted to achieve. After the final weekend of summer, their free time would evaporate like water on hot pavement.

If they wanted bright futures, gaming would have to take a back burner to life. Excelling in school was their priority. When summer ended, everything would be different.

Change wasn’t always a bad thing.

Sometimes, an opportunity arises that is too good to refuse—a chance to influence their own destinies in ways they never thought possible.

The golden ticket winners were about to discover that all it took for their lives to change was the interest of one reclusive trillionaire. Mr. Tannenbaum’s flair for the dramatic was well known, and he had one final surprise prepared for all the golden ticket winners.

A contest that could determine the course of their lives.
