Max and Luke are the youngest members of a secret underwater society dedicated to protecting the books and artefacts of their home from evil invaders. They call themselves the S.Q.U.I.D. Squad and they never turn down a dangerous adventure. When Pillagers establish an outpost not far from the Book Guardian's hidden ravine headquarters, it's time for the S.Q.U.I.D Squad to swim into action. When their plans to outwit and scare the Pillagers fail, they must turn to the help of a mysterious captive of the Pillagers, the Talker. But the Talker seems to have devious plans of her own.
