Race for the Secret Code

Parker Twins #6

by Jeanette Windle

Justin swam frantically against the pressure of the ferry wake that pulled him deep below the surface of the water. Then, just as he knew he would have to inhale, a last, desperate kick carried him beyond the turbulence. Above him, Justin could make out several dark forms silhouetted against the deck lights, their guns pointing toward him in the water.

When their father is accused of selling vital defense information to a Middle Eastern terrorist, Justin works with a National Security agent to prove his father's innocence, while Jenny struggles to understand the dilemma that is throwing their family into its gravest danger ever.
