Illustrations. \nDelve into the extraordinary abilities of the twelve-year-old mind in this fast-paced, superhero-tinged spy novel (Publishers Weekly), the thrilling start to a middle grade series that expands the possibilities of power. \nNo one has any confidence in twelve-year-old Christopher Lane. His teachers discount him as a liar and a thief, and his mom doesn't have the energy to deal with him. But a mysterious visit from the Ministry of Education indicates that Chris might have some potential after all: He is invited to attend the prestigious Myers Holt Academy. \n \nWhen Christopher begins at his new school, he is astounded at what he can do. It seems that age twelve is a special time for the human brain, which is capable of remarkable feats--as also evidenced by Chris's peers Ernest and Mortimer Genver, who, at the direction of their vengeful and manipulative mother, are testing the boundaries of the human mind. \n \nBut all this experimentation has consequences, and Chris soon finds himself forced to face them--or his new life will be over before it can begin.\n
