"I know your weakness. You want to be fair, you want to do right, you want to be the good guy. I could give you a depression you'd never crawl out of." Sometimes, no matter the turmoil in our lives, it's the seemingly irrelevant, simple, normal things that heighten our pulse and tighten our stomachs. Sam Grant has come to that conclusion over the last months because after all his adventures and near-death experiences, he's still stressed out about exams. But the ordinary morphs into the unexpected when Snitch Gravel decides to break their silent deal. Home is no longer safe and rules no longer apply. As Sam and Tom try to fix what has been broken in the delicate balance between their two lives, the rest of the group embarks on a new mission to dig out one more jewel before Snitch Gravel finds it. But with no leader and just a vague hint, it's turning out to be harder than expected as tension within the group bubbles to boiling point. But glory waits for no one. The race is on. ❄ Epic cover by @italychick Highest rank #63 in Adventure

"Why is it always 'why' with you? Grow up already! Not all people are alike. You're good, I'm evil, you're naïve, I know how things are, and you're an idiot while I'm brilliant." With the jungle and Snitch Gravel left behind, Sam Grant thought the crazier part of life was over and he could now focus on his secret agent training and getting to know his new brothers. Before he can even get used to safety and comfort, everything goes downhill: his father goes ballistic, his cousin disappears and him and his brothers are called in to rescue a fellow agent from Snitch Gravel's base. Aside from sending them to battle countless henchmen, the Agency is also keen to keep them in the dark about their most important project - a project Sam and his brothers play a vital part in. Once again on the road, Sam must figure out how to do something he's never done before: infiltrate Snitch Gravel's base stealthily and come out unscathed. *** The story is completed. Sequel to Too Young Even if it's the second book in a series, the story is pretty stand-alone-ish. There are many characters, but it's easy to get the gist of them.
