Ridgeview High School is abuzz with gossip after notorious bully Trevor Newsome is knocked flat by someone – or something. After Trevor claims a robot attacked him, Principal Wilma Allan sends her nephew, crack student newspaper reporter Owen Dinsmore, to investigate. Suspicion falls on Mr. Storch’s AP Physics students, who recently built small robots for an upcoming robotics competition. Could they have built something bigger and more dangerous? Owen visits Mr. Storch’s classroom to explore that possibility.

Owen's investigation leads to some amazing discoveries as well as a chance to go out with Erica Litvak, one of Mr. Storch's top students. But another Physics student, Michael DeVere, also wants Erica as a girlfriend, and he has a sinister plan to get rid of Owen as a rival.

If there is a lesson to be learned from this book, it is this: When we try to get revenge, innocent people are often the first victims.
