Do you know The Code?
DARKUS KNIGHTLEY is a perfectly ordinary thirteen-year-old, apart from the name, his brainpower, his fondness for tweed ... and his father, Alan, who used to be London’s top private detective. Until he went into a coma four years ago. And when an agent from the Department of the Unexplained arrives with news that he’s woken up, ordinary is over for good ...
Alan discovers Darkus has inherited the family talent—and their services are urgently needed. Is a bestselling book making its readers do terrible things? Could it be linked to a shadowy organisation known as The Combination? Can Darkus figure out why his rebellious stepsister is so interested? One thing’s for sure: when it comes to weird goings on, two brilliant minds are better than one. And it doesn’t get weirder than this.
The game is afoot for KNIGHTLEY & SON
