Synopsis

In the third book of F. T. Bradley's spy adventure series that ALA Booklist calls "hilarious" and "authentic," troublemaker Linc Baker must infiltrate the set of a Hollywood blockbuster in order to stop a terrorist's plan for worldwide destruction.

After his last mission, Linc thought his undercover junior agent days were behind him and tons of boring studying ahead of him. But when supersecret government agency Pandora wants your help, you don't exactly have a choice. Sinister criminal Ethan Melais is on the loose in Tinseltown, and it's up to Linc to find him.

But while he's on the job, Linc is snagged by a famous director to star in a movie. Add "trying to impress the cute Hollywood starlet Savannah Stone" to Linc's to-do list and this mission has suddenly become more complicated. As always, Linc's look-alike agent nemesis, Ben Green, is hot on Linc's heels, and time is running out. Can Linc nab the thief, charm Savannah, and beat Ben at his own game?

From the Back Cover:

Undercover junior agent. . . take three!

With the annual Baker family reunion only days away, Linc expects a weekend full of cousins, cars, and his mom's terrible macaroni salad. But then secret government agency Pandora contacts him--again! They need Linc's help to secure the Dangerous Double of Charlie Chaplin's famous bowler hat before mysteri-ous master thief Ethan Melais uses its invisibility powers for world domination. Linc agrees to join the mission. Easy peasy, right?

But if there's one thing Linc should know by now, it's that nothing is easy when it comes to being a junior secret agent--especially when you accidentally land yourself a role in a Hollywood blockbuster. With bogus leads, baffling dead ends, and constant one-upping from his look-alike nemesis, Ben Green, Linc's juggling a lot more than he bargained for!
