But when a schoolmates father--who happens to head up a large drug company--learns of Nalas special power, the excitement begins. After helping out with mosquito research, Nala has the chance to travel to Kenya to investigate mosquitoes reactions to her fathers family. All goes well until a man heartbroken by his daughters death from malaria kidnaps Nala.
