Drone chase

2021
"When his orphan bear cub goes missing, sixteen-year-old drone enthusiast Ray McLellan decides to use his airborne spying skills to find it. Little does he know that a bear-poaching gang operating in the surrounding forest has drones, too--and a cold welcome for anyone who would attempt to take them down. As a New York City kid recently forced to move to the Great Bear Rainforest by his parents, what Ray doesn't have is a lifetime of outdoor instincts or familiarity with the valley and its wildlife. That makes him very different from his grumpy grandfather, who--like his new school friends--berates his city-kid uselessness at every opportunity. Can Ray use his drones and smarts to prove himself, find his cub, and expose what's going on in the woods?"--Back cover.
