Lord Zenith has a plan: Make the subjects of Aquerna, the squirrel kingdom ruled over by his cousin, Queen Lucina, believe that winter is far away so he can steal their nuts.
Simple, right?
Except his cousin, Queen Lucina, and her women dug up the nuts before the snows fell, disrupting his carefully plotted plan.
Zenith isn’t worried, he has a backup plan and the BECS.
The BECS is an elite squad of chipmunk commandos known as the Black Eastern Chipmunk Squad.
They are the best of the best.
No nuts are safe when they are on the prowl.
Not even those held in the vaults of the Aquerna bank.
Will Zenith be able to pull off the perfect heist?
Or will his cousin defeat him yet again?

Chapter 5: Aftermath
“What do you mean the plan hit a few snags?” Zenith asked, looking at his general. “It was a simple plan. Break into the bank and take all the nuts. How could your people mess that up?"...
Chapter 2: Plans
Zenith gazed out of his window, watching the snow come down. Zenith liked snow. It reminded him a lot of himself. Cold. White. Unpredictable. Ever changing. However at times he was the opposite of the snow: passionate, predicable, and unwavering....
