Description

While visiting Cuba with her mom, Sophie is haunted by visions that reveal past mysteries and point to future troubles, like Milo witnessing a murder on a Miami movie set and Usnavy investigating strange creature sightings. The only way Soph can save them in time By unearthing a crashed UFO!

After getting blasted by alien energy, Sophie takes a break from reality on a girls trip with her mom in Cuba. Their plan is to reconnect and retrace their family history until eerie visions show Sophie the fateful crash of a UFO in 1960 that has major ramifications on her life. And just as she wraps her head around that, she glimpses a premonition of her friend, Milo, getting shot.

Desperate to save him, Soph comes clean about her extraterrestrial extracurricular activities only for the Cuban Army to arrest her. Apparently, they arent too fond of American reporters on their soil. What follows is an eye-opening visit from a mad scientist, a jailbreak of intergalactic proportions, and a touching heart-to-heart between Soph and her mom that leaves both women feeling newfound appreciation and awe for each other.

SCOOP: Sci-Fi Witness represents Sophies most exciting and most emotional investigation yet in which she solves a twisty murder mystery that is once again torn from the headlines. The only way for her to survive is by focusing on the facts, trusting her instincts, and finally being honest about her feelings for Usnavy and Milo.
