After all, she was an actual spy! What would a middle school kid know about things like that? Of course, the fact that it's Betty, the most dangerous thirteen year old on the planet, does give Merry a little pause. But seriously, in a town of about five thousand people, a group of foreign terrorists would stand out...right? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOr so she thinks, until the CIA quietly asks Merry and her former handler Riley to look into it. It doesn't help that inept-beyond-all-belief FBI agents Summer and Winter (yes, their real names) are also looking into it, or that Merry's buddy, CIA assassin Hilly, plays hooky from an assignment to help out-by sending the hapless Abed (CIA flunkie and Girl Scout cookie junkie) to \u003ci\u003efloat the flounder\u003c\/i\u003e in her place. Still, Merry thinks this is nothing more than a wild goose chase until a mysterious, elderly woman is murdered. Now, Merry has second thoughts and finds herself in a race to unravel the woman's past and find the sleeper cell, before she becomes the next target. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat critics are saying about Leslie Langtry's books: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"I laughed so hard I cried on multiple occasions!
