At the beginning of the book, the main plot was about a 14 year old boy who lived in london and finds out that his uncle was a secret agent and gets killed in action. So Alex now has to take his place as the agent and goes on this mission to a remote private school and find out why and how they are turning rich, snobby kids into perfect prodigies in a matter of weeks.
The main setting of this book was a remote private school somewhere in the Alps. But there are littler settings before the main one like the downtown streets of London where he chases a drug dealer and lifts the barge where their operations were and crashes them through a police station. Another little setting is a mansion on the country side where he lives with his fake family before he goes to the boarding school. The main conflict of this story is Alex is in the boarding school and is held captive because he knows how the school is making the kids so polite and nice in a short amount of time. He almost got dissected alive and was getting shot at later in the book skiing down a mountain trying to escape the school.
I really like this book because it was a suspenseful and on the edge of your seat kind of book. I like them kind of books and this book is kind of an adventure book also. The type of person who should read this book is a person who likes adventure and likes a on the edge of your seat book because that is what this book is.
