When teens become spies, danger doesn’t wait for permission.

Spring Break is over—but the danger is just beginning. After a mysterious encrypted signal from Romania hits the White House, Dakota Knox and Afton Hansley are recruited for a covert assignment tied to their new training with America’s top intelligence program. Their first mission: infiltrate Apex Academy, a hidden European compound where a powerful leader is molding teens into loyal operatives for a world-shaking cyberattack.

But nothing inside Apex is what it seems.
Teens are drilled like soldiers.
Truth is twisted into loyalty.
Suspicion lurks in every hallway.

And one sharp, wounded hacker girl named Raya begins asking the kind of questions that pull Dakota and Afton into late-night conversations about evidence, faith, and the God she’s sure can’t forgive someone like her.

When a catastrophic countdown begins and the world is minutes from disaster, Dakota and Afton must risk everything—their cover, their freedom, even their lives—to bring down a network built on the power and potential of the young.

Fast-paced, faith-filled, and full of heart-pounding suspense, Dakota Knox: The Spy Academy is the biggest mission yet for readers who love action, courage, and truth that shines in the darkest places.
