Bubble Tech
by Thomas Babak
Sixteen-year old Henry “Sandy” Alessandro Kane invents a world-changing new technology that he must keep secret, at least until he can figure out what it can do and if he can introduce it to the world safely. He has to in order to keep a promise of secrecy to his boss, because this new technology not only has the potential for tremendous good, but also for horrific evil.
The technology he invented is not Sandy’s only secret. His dad disappeared and Sandy has successfully avoided being discovered as a minor on his own for years but one of his secrets might betray the other, if he is not careful.
Along with the secrets that Sandy needs to protect, he also must navigate the relationship with his beautiful childhood friend, Tasha. After years of ignoring and avoiding him, Tasha is suddenly back in Sandy’s life. Sandy finds his relationship with her more difficult than any secret he could keep, including that of his world- changing technology: Bubble Tech, a technology that renders what it surrounds both invisible and seemingly invincible.
