“A rash of pranks at an exclusive private school leads two young detectives all the way to the White House [in this] splendid whodunit.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

An Edgar Award Winner for Juvenile Fiction

After helping the FBI solve an art theft at the National Gallery, Florian Bates finds life at Alice Deal Middle School a little boring. Luckily, his FBI handler has another case for him. Is it a bank robbery? International espionage? Actually, it’s middle school pranks . . .

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 go undercover to stop the mayhem before the media gets wind of it.

But there’s more than pranks lurking within the school’s elite community. And things take a sinister turn when a student vanishes in the middle of a concert at the Kennedy Center!
