An Edgar Award Winner for Juvenile Fiction

Perfect for mystery buffs with &;elements of Alex Rider, James Bond, and Sherlock Holmes,&; (School Library Journal) the Framed! series stars the only kid on the FBI Director&;s speed dial and several international criminals&; most wanted lists!

Middle school is hard. Solving cases for the FBI is even harder. Doing both at the same time&;well that&;s just crazy. But that doesn&;t stop Florian Bates!

After helping the FBI solve an art theft at the National Gallery and uncovering a DC spy ring, Florian&;s finding life at Alice Deal Middle School a little boring. But that&;s all about to change! His FBI handler, Marcus, has a job for him! Is it a bank robbery? Counterfeit ring? International espionage? Actually it&;s middle school pranks&;

Sounds pretty ordinary except that the pranks are happening at a prestigious private school attended by the President&;s daughter who may&;or may not&;be involved. So Florian and Margaret are going undercover to see if they can use their TOAST skills to figure out what&;s going on before the media gets hold of the story.

However, once the crime-solving pair arrive at the school, they discover that there&;s a lot more than a few pranks going on and the conspiracy of silence reaches all the way to the top. Then a student vanishes in the middle of a concert at the Kennedy Center and things take a sinister turn!

Can Florian and Margaret save the day? Or are they about to get toasted?
