In the twenty-first novel in this new series, Tom has defeated the
Electricity Vampires and now wants something a bit less diabolical
to take up his time. A new X-Prize is announced that intrigues him:
fly a solar-powered aircraft, non-stop, around the globe in just 36
hours! That sort of speed will require an electrical powered jet,
and that will burn up a lot of electricity. So, how can he manage
to make what he needs by day... and still have enough to run at
full speed at night? Might his recently discovered cousin in
England, Thomasina Swift, be of some assistance? After all, she and
her partner, Betty, have come up with an incredible solar cloth!
Just as long as nothing ""exotic"" is used like one of Tom's Power
Pods. Complicating things is a mysterious woman, and a deadly
opponent, seemingly out to keep Tom from winning or perhaps from
ever getting back home alive.
