Synopsis
When an advert appears in the newspaper for children to take part in a secret mission, children everywhere sit a series of odd tets. In the end, just Reynie, Kate, Sticky and Constance succeed. They have three things in common: they are honest, talented and orphans. They must go undercover and work as a team to save themselves, but also the world.
