Alex Rider has competition...from a girl. Jesse Sharpe, child prodigy and reluctant spy, is on her first mission: to protect a young girl from a kidnap attempt. Brought up by secret organization C2, Jesse has been trained to trail suspects, plant bugs and kick occasional bad-guy butt. What she doesn't know is whether she can trust C2 and the information she's been given...and the more she investigates the more she suspects there's something she hasn't been told.
