Our story begins…
The year is 1933. Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Molly Sloan and her intrepid research assistant Timmy Mendez are researching a story in Transylvania when they discover a strange map. Suddenly, their lives are in danger, only to be rescued by a mysterious stranger. Soon, they join forces with this stranger to defeat a sinister invasion of Earth by the Zygonians, a sludge-based life form from another galaxy. By the time our adventurers have unraveled the mystery, they have traveled across Europe, to the Effdillinplitzenpire Galaxy, to a Robot Planet, and finally to the home world of the Zygonians: Imperial Zygon. Can they defeat these creatures? Will Molly and Ben requite their hidden passions? Does Timmy have a secret that even he doesn’t know he possesses?
