If you have a map, you must know where you're going...right? Today, Max isn't so sure!
When Max and his brainy beagle-bot, Oscar, find a 400-year-old navigation unit, they’re shocked to discover that it still seems to work. They trace its owner’s last journey and find themselves on the road to very big trouble!
Far from home, Max and Oscar cross paths with a bunch of bungling burglars, trying to zip away with a precious piece of old-tech art. Max and Oscar will need to map out a rapid plan to catch the thieves and navigate their way out of danger!

There's a new sleuth in town - he's fun, funny, and very 2424!
Max Booth is an 11-year-old "shadie" urchin living in the year 2424, struggling to survive.
With the chance to make some money by uncovering the secrets of mysterious "gadgets" from the 20th century for the Bluggsville City Museum, Max and his faithful (but slightly neurotic) robo-dog Oscar, start investigating.
But the path to success is never easy, and there are sinister tricks, strange characters and lots of challenges along the way. Join the adventure in this fabulous series full of mystery, surprises and suspense. Ideal for reluctant readers.
