His first day of freedom lands him right into Bob's cup of coffee at a famous coffee shop in the French Quarter. Now, Beanie just can't get enough! Bob is a friendly children's book writer who has an eye for fancy hats. Although he's smart and compassionate, he's lonely and needs a friend. He quickly discovers they are two peas in a pod! Everything seems to be going well for them, until Bob finds out the lab is searching for his new friend. He is willing to do whatever it takes to keep Beanie safe. But that's not all... Beanie is hiding a secret, and it's the reason the lab is on the hunt. When Bob finds out what it is, New Orleans is turned upside down.
