Rocket McGee: Avoiding Trouble! is the first book in the Rocket McGee Series and introduces four well-schooled and well-traveled but lonely young people about 12 years old who forge a reluctant and rocky alliance in a perilous, high-tech adventure to save one of their parents. Along the way, they discover friendship, a place in the world, and the super-human power to work together. In this world, magic lies in technology and human interaction.

On present-day Earth, or nearly so, the world-views and objectives of secretly advanced technology companies are coming to a head. Envy and avarice rear their fire-snorting snouts. Trouble roils and flares, and four young people are forced to extricate themselves from a gnarly situation not of their making, though they have a knack for getting themselves into trouble too.
