"A page-turner in the spirit of Alex Rider and co." (Kirkus)
Only one secret agent can defeat the world's most ruthless criminal organization.
He was surrounded. Jason's body worked automatically, his mind blank. He was fighting to breathe, forcing himself not to give up. But he was trapped. Standing on one leg and kicking out to keep the men back, he fumbled for the door handle to his left. He ran inside and leaped onto the narrow window ledge. He was nearly 100 feet up, but the Triad thugs were closing fast. Jason jumped....
Martial arts expert and undercover agent Jason Steed is on the run, hunted by a crew of vicious criminals. To survive, he must rely on his training - to be faster, smarter, tougher. Jason will do whatever it takes to defeat the Triads. But when his own government turns against him, does he have more enemies than he can handle?

If you’re in the same boat as me, here’s what I’ve got, comparing the two series:
- Alex Rider series is written better. The interaction between the characters are more believable. But the story is more repetitive, following a set recipe.
- Jason Steed series is a bit clumsy in the way that certain things are explained, making it unrealistic and unbelievable. Like, it makes me think that Cooper is a bit out of touch with teenagers and interaction between others and teenagers. Anyways, not the end of the world, and certainly didn’t prevent more from listening to the end.
- I like Jason Steed’s storylines. They are certainly less predictable than Alex Rider series. I thought the story was drawing to an end 1/3 of a way through (not keep track of the progress or total num of chapters) and was thrown in for a loop several times! It’s fast-paced. The action sequence is pretty good.
- No gadgets in Jason Steed story. We have guns. The actions and consequences are quite serious.
- Jason Steed storyline is longer, with more complexity, I felt that everything wasn’t wrapped up in a neat bow at the end (unlike Alex Rider series for the most parts) There were still some loose ends and unanswered questions.
I would recommend this book and the series itself if you like action-packed “spy” teen novels. I wouldn’t take the story too seriously though. It’s an easy read.
An easy read. Fast-paced.

It's nonstop spy action with a twelve year old multiple-black belt secret agent. Jason Steed is a character that is hard to believe but hey, this is fiction

I tried very hard to finish this book. I rarely give up on anything I am reading or listening to; but, this book was just so horrible I couldn't finish it.
The only positive of this book is the narrator. He does a great job keeping the characters on point. There were a few places the narrator sped up and it didn't flow well with the text being presented but overall a very good presentation by the narrator. I will have no problem listening to him in the future.
The actual story itself is just so bad. A wealthy 12 year old "spy" planted into a juvenile detention center and manages to make friends with the son of the head of the Asian mafia in about 30 seconds. This child has never fired a gun but somehow manages to leave a trail of bodies in his quest for freedom. (Where is he finding all these rounds btw?) The book has a body count George RR Martin would be jealous of, but when a character is killed off you don't really care. None of the characters have any depth, including the main character.
I gave up with about 45 minutes left and it is not even 6 hours long. I have 3 sons (20, 19 and 12) and none of them have spoken or acted like this child. As a YA novel, none of my sons would be able to relate to this character. You cannot write a story where you arbitrarily decide the main character is 12 and call it YA.
Skip this one.
Making a character 12 isn't making a YA novel.
