Description
There are 1.3 million great whales left in the Earth's oceans today.
Climate activist Abi and her AI computer Moonlight are on a mission to protect the planet.
When they uncover whale song recordings made by Abi's great-grandfather, a whale hunter, Moonlight discovers a pattern...
...the songs are a map to a future that could rescue the whales and rescue the world.
