Synopsis

Alex Rider, a sus catorce años y, muy a su pesar, espía del servicio secreto británico MI6, vuelve al colegio tratando de adaptarse a su nueva doble vida y a sus dobles deberes escolares. Pero el MI6 tiene otros planes para él. Las investigaciones sobre la muerte 'accidental' de dos de los hombres más poderosos del mundo h a puesto al descubierto un único vínculo. Los dos tenían un hijo en la Point Blanc Academy un exclusivo colegio para vástagos rebeldes de familias ricas, dirigido por el siniestro Doctor Grief y situado en un inexpugnable pico de los Alpes franceses.

When an investigation into a series of mysterious death leads agents to an elite prep school for rebellious kids, M16 assigns Alex Rider, a 14-year-old reluctant spy, to the case.

Alex Rider is no ordinary fourteen-year-old West London schoolboy. He has no parents or any other relatives to speak of, so he's pretty much on his own. And he's been recruited to be the youngest spy for MI6, Britain's secret intelligence organization. MI6 needs Alex to investigate the murders of two of the world's wealthiest individuals. The case leads him to an undercover assignment as the son of one of the world's richest supermarket magnates. Relocated to an elite boarding school in the Swiss Alps, Alex uncovers a dastardly plot by the headmaster, Dr. Grief, who has his sights, no less, on taking over the entire world. Dr. Grief's diabolical plot involves the duplication of the sons of the world's most powerful men. With the help of spy gadgets that might make 007 green with envy, Alex is able to make some harrowing escapes to foil Dr. Grief's plans and make the world safe once more. This is the second in the "Alex Rider Adventure" series. 2001, Philomel Books,— Christopher Moning
