Tom and his twin sister, Zilla, go to school. While at school, they are contacted though their watches about their next mission. They work for a spy organization. During their mission to a robotics lab to investigate why no one ever leaves, they discover its dark secret.
Opinion: This a great book for kids getting into chapter books. It would also be great for a book club for ages 7-9. This novel is written in a third person point of view, which allows the reader to know most of the characters' thoughts. Though it ended abruptly, I enjoyed the suspense and action of this title.

So far this the best Mission Alert episode. The twin power is strong. I was touch at the scene when Zilla run into Toms arm. Love it! I want more Mission Alert! But this the last one I have huhuhu :'(
