Safe houses and secret message drops, double crosses and defections--it
sounds like the stuff of sophisticated espionage, but the agents are
only schoolboys engaged in harmless play. But John Creevey doesn't know

To him, the messages he decodes with painstaking care are the
communications of dangerous and evil men, and as he comes face to face
with the fact of his beloved wife Jennifer's defection, he begins to see
a way to get back at the man she left him for. And soon the schoolboys
are playing more than just a game.
