Excerpt from Book Chapter 1: Interrogation 1 INTERROGATION Aquarius Family Resort and Spa Quintana Roo, Mexico March 30 1300 hours The key to defeating SPYDER, the most dangerous consortium of evildoers on earth, sat in the middle of the dining room table of the penthouse suite. It was an actual key, as well as a metaphorical one. A small, old-fashioned silver key, like the kind that would open a jewelry box. There was a tiny 1206 stamped on it. Until that very morning, SPYDER had been plotting to melt half of Antarctica with several hundred tons of illegally obtained nuclear weapons and flood every coastal city on earth. Luckily, my friends from spy school and I had thwarted them. But while we had captured ten members of the organization, the leaders had managed to escape. Still, thanks to our actions, SPYDER was almost bankrupt, the leaders were on the run, and we had it on good authority that the key could help us finally defeat them once and for all. The only problem was we had no idea how to do that. Which was why I had been tasked with grilling Murray Hill about it. We were seated across from each other at the dining room table, wearing garish T-shirts and Bermuda shorts that we had bought at the resort gift shop. The outfits we had been wearing previously were soiled with mud and sweat, and all the rest of our clothes had sunk in a lake when our plane had crashed into it a few days earlier. Unfortunately, the resort gift shop had been our only option for new outfits. "What does the key open?" I asked Murray, trying to sound as professional as possible. "A lock, obviously," he replied. "Its a key. Duh." "I know that. I meant which lock?" "Oh. Sorry. You should have been more specific." Murray grinned broadly, then said, "I dont know." I fought the urge to leap across the table and forcibly wipe that grin off Murrays face. Despite having been at the Academy of Espionage for a little more than a year, I wasnt very skilled at physical combat, but I was pretty sure that I could defeat Murray. Murray wasnt much of a fighter either. Like me, his strength was his brains. At fourteen, Murray was only a year older than me, but he had already been a part of several devious plots with SPYDER. He had originally been a spy school student like me, lasting only a year before SPYDER corrupted him with the lure of easy money and power. Over the next fourteen months, he had become my nemesis, cropping up in one evil plan after another. However, SPYDER had recently betrayed him, trying to kill him along with me on our flight to Mexico. Now he wanted to destroy them; he was the one who had brought the key to our attention in the first place. Unfortunately, Murray wasnt the slightest bit trustworthy. Despite how upset he was at SPYDER for double-crossing him, he had double-crossed me plenty of times. I was quite sure that no matter how much he claimed to want to bring SPYDER down, he was really only looking out for himself. He had spent the last few hours negotiating his own freedom in exchange for helping us--and now he appeared to have no actual help to give. In the seat beside me, Zoe Zibbell tensed in anger. A fellow second-year student like myself--and one of my closest friends at the academy--she had even less patience for Murray than I did. "There must be two billion locks in the world," she said. "And youre telling us you dont have any idea which one this key opens?" "Nope," Murray said pleasantly. "But Joshua Hallal probably does. After all, it was his key." "Joshua is unconscious," I reminded Murray. "Im sure hell come around sooner or later. Its not like hes in a coma or anything," Murray said, then thought to ask, "Is he?" I looked to Zoe, unsure what the answer to this was myself. She shrugged in return. Joshua Hallal was currently in the infirmary at the Aquarius Family Resort and Spa, a sprawling beachside hotel complex on the eastern edge of the Yucat Details ISBN1534424717 Pages 352 Audience Age 8-12 Series Spy School Language English Year 2020 ISBN-10 1534424717 ISBN-13 9781534424715 Format Paperback Publication Date 2020-05-05 Publisher Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers Imprint Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers Edition Description Reprint ed.
