Brainwashed by Paul Aertker
While sleeping on the roof of his father's hotel, thirteen-year-old Lucas Benes finds a baby alone and learns that the Good Company has restarted its profitable kidnapping business. Brainwashed (Crime Travelers #1) tracks the secret urban adventures of the New Resistance, a network of international teenage spies. Lucas leads a group of friends through the hotspots of Paris-from the catacombs to the Eiffel tower-in an all-out effort to sabotage a brainwashing ceremony that could potentially turn them all into Good kids. A squeaky-clean international thriller for kids. A reluctant reader's dream.
Aertker, Paul: - Paul Aertker (ETT Kerr) is an award-winning children's book writer, teacher, and frequent speaker at elementary and middle schools.

His first series, Crime Travelers, consistently ranks in the top spot in multiple categories. The series has been optioned for TV and Film. His newest book, Posthumous, won the Indie Book of the Year Bronze medal and won the SCBWI Spark Honor award for excellence in children's publishing. He and his wife live in Colorado and travel with their two children whenever possible. More information at paulaertker.com As a traveler and multilingual teacher, Aertker has clocked nearly half his life outside the US. When he was a teenager, he slept on the streets of London to watch a royal wedding. He took the CIA exam because he wanted to be a spy for the good guys (and not the Good Company). Ages 10 and up will love this series' campy flavor. Parents, teachers, and librarians will appreciate the worldwide geography and appropriate language. A reluctant reader's dream. For boys, girls, (and adults who may act like children: ). More information at https: //www.paulaertker.com/ & https: //www.crimetravelers.com/
