Gr 6–8—This sequel to Codename Zero finds former kid agent Carson Fender back in the civilian world. After foiling the dastardly villain and his terrorist plot, Carson is happily spending his days as a normal, carefree middle schooler. But when he learns about another potential mole and that one agent's life is in danger, he finds himself back in the wild world he'd left behind. A fun series for readers who enjoy James Bond-esque thrill rides.
When Agent Nineteen's life is threatened by a deadly virus that's fallen into enemy hands, ex-spy Carson (Codename Zero) is tasked with breaking into a secret lab inside of Mt. Rushmore to save the day--while on a school field trip. Action-packed and humorous, this installment adds interesting character development as things get more serious and Carson struggles with some realistic moral dilemmas.
