Alex thinks he's done with espionage, but SCORPIA thinks otherwise. They target Alex and drag others in too. Now he's going to train with the SAS for his 'protection' so needless to say things look rough. Oh, and his class is coming too.

Scorpia doesn’t take well to MI6’s threats regarding Alex. In response, they attack anyone he's ever known. Including K Unit. Wolf will have to put aside any grudges he still holds to keep Alex alive. But keeping him alive will be harder then they know.

Deceived by friends and hunted by strangers Alex Rider has never been more alone. He's serching for answers and the biggest question is whether or not he will survive his eighth misson! Please R&R! Crystal XxX

MI6 never got the hint of him never wanting another mission, nor why he hates them. Sent off to spy on the oddest bunch of assassins with K-Unit trailing along, can this end with happiness or will it all spell disaster for Alex?

Alex is sent to live with Wolf after an unfortunate incident. From Wolf's point of view.
