In this thrilling new series that Stuart Gibbs called "a must-read,"
Edgar Award winner James Ponti brings together five kids from all over
the world and transforms them into real-life spies--perfect for fans of
Spy School and Mrs. Smith's Spy School for Girls.
Sara Martinez is a hacker. She recently broke into the New York City
foster care system to expose her foster parents as cheats and
lawbreakers. However, instead of being hailed as a hero, Sara finds
herself facing years in a juvenile detention facility and banned from
using computers for the same stretch of time. Enter Mother, a British
spy who not only gets Sara released from jail but also offers her a
chance to make a home for herself within a secret MI6 agency.
Operating out of a base in Scotland, the City Spies are five kids from
various parts of the world. When they're not attending the local
boarding school, they're honing their unique skills, such as sleight of
hand, breaking and entering, observation, and explosives. All of these
allow them to go places in the world of espionage where adults can't.
Before she knows what she's doing, Sarah is heading to Paris for an
international youth summit, hacking into a rival school's computer to
prevent them from winning a million euros, dangling thirty feet off the
side of a building, and trying to stop a villain...all while navigating
the complex dynamics of her new team.
No one said saving the world was easy...

A tween takes on undead New Yorkers in this paranormal
action-adventure that "breathes new life into the zombie genre"
(Suzanne Collins, author of "The Hunger Games").
Most kids have enough to deal with between school, homework,
extracurricular activities, and friends, but Molly Bigelow isn't
your typical tween. By day, Molly attends MIST--the Metropolitan
Institute of Science and Technology--but it's what she's learning
outside of school that sets her apart from her classmates. Molly is
a zombie hunter, just like her mother.
This, however, is news to Molly. Now she must come to terms with
not only the idea that zombies exist, but also that they're

Molly is ready for more nonstop, undead action in this follow-up to
"Dead City," which "Kirkus Reviews "described as "a fast-paced read
for those who like their zombies with just a little fright."
When Molly Bigelow discovered that zombies shared New York with
humans, she didn't think life could get more shocking. Then she
learned that her mother was once one of the greatest zombie killers
ever--and she discovered that her dead mother is not technically
dead after all (although she isn't alive, either).
Molly's efforts to keep these secrets and to help her Omega team
track down the identity of the original thirteen zombies will take
her from the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade to New Year's Eve in
Times Square. Her loyalties to friends and family will be put to
the test. And her life will be changed in ways she never could have
imagined.
