​

After tentacled machines invade Earth, twelve-year-old swashbuckling spy Rat and her best friend, cautious inventor Jack, lead a crew of “sewer-smart” orphans. When their youngest crew member gets sick, they’ll barter anything to cure him, even something they don’t have: a valuable power source from the invaders’ fortress. Time for an epic heist!
