Mozzie's Mission

Mozzie is no ordinary mosquito—she hears the world as rhythm and feels destiny buzzing in every beat of her wings. From the instant she cracks her egg in a shrinking roadside puddle, Mozzie must marshal her unruly brood through searing heat, storm-drain mazes, and the razor strike of Drakon, the dragonfly that shadows their every flight. But puddle predators are only the beginning. Humans wield foggers, traps, and a terrifying gene-drive program that could erase mosquito-kind forever. Armed with nothing but courage, curiosity, and a gift for turning wingbeats into harmony, Mozzie forges an unlikely squad: Buzz, the joke-cracking brother who finds bravery in rhythm; Ada, the flamboyant day-flier who hides her fear behind flash; Nox, the night-wise guardian with secrets in her silent swoops; and Zane, a lab-bred sterile male seeking redemption. Together they invent sonic shields, outfly bats, and plan a daring raid on a guarded research lab—knowing each sunrise may be their last. Fast-moving, funny, and scientifically packed, Mozzie’s Mission is an adventure about finding your frequency in a world determined to silence you. If Mozzie can turn music into survival, she’ll leave behind more than an echo—she’ll launch the next generation on wings of legacy.
