About This Book

A pair of curious young men, Rick Brant and Don Scott, encounter mysterious sting ray–shaped objects that fly over Chesapeake Bay and are suspected in a kidnapping. Locals, fearful of ridicule, have stopped reporting sightings, so the boys, aided by their friend Steve Ames, a government intelligence agent, conduct a scientific investigation. Clues lead them to a historic plantation and to discoveries on the bay bottom; through resourcefulness and perilous action they trace the origin of the craft and put a stop to the threat.
