Be careful what you wish for…

Sam’s life is far from ordinary. Living in a high-tech world without arms or legs, she has one special room where she can project herself as a 3D hologram, just like the holodeck from Star Trek. In that room, Sam can be whoever she wants to be—free to explore the world in ways her body can't allow.

But when her dad surprises her with a tablet that can transport her hologram anywhere, Sam gets the opportunity of a lifetime: her first picnic—a simple dream come true. But things take a sudden, dangerous turn, and Sam finds herself on an unexpected adventure with no way back.

For the first time, Sam’s future is unwritten. Will she be able to navigate the risks and surprises ahead—or will her holographic dreams become her worst nightmare?

Project S.A.M. is the thrilling short story prequel to the Putney Hicks Inventor Adventures series—the origin story that reveals how Sam became the magic eyePad and how her journey set the stage for Putney’s incredible adventures.
