Sydney was Emily, Sara’s cellmate in juvie. She met Sydney, age 14, the night before. She will meet four other kids, all about her age, and all from similar yet different situations. After a confusing and-if you ask her attorney-spectacular court appearance (by her attorney), Sara is on her way to Scotland and a boarding school in a castle. Brooklyn is a twelve-year-old foster child named Sara, from which one hopes is an atypical foster home.

When they’re not attending an elite boarding school, they’re training for their roles as the biggest secret in the British Secret Intelligence Service.īefore she knows what she’s doing, Sara 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 notorious villain, all while navigating the complex dynamics of her new team.

She recently broke into the New York City juvenile justice system to expose her foster parents as cheats and lawbreakers. Themes: Foster Children, Computer Hacking, Second Chances
