Investigations into the "accidental" deaths of two of the world's most powerful men have revealed just one link: both had a son attending Point Blanc Academy – an exclusive school for rebellious rich kids, run by the sinister Dr Grief and set high on an isolated mountain peak in the French Alps. Armed only with a false ID and a new collection of brilliantly disguised gadgets, Alex must infiltrate the academy as a pupil and establish the truth about what is really happening there.
This is pretty much a second template adventure for young alex. There isn't a huge deal of character development, although we do start to see his dissolution with normal life. Although apart from that there's not much extra, a bonus point for the utterly captivating ending. A sprig of healthy doubt is good for the soul
