Agent Six of Hearts

You can't kill the past. Meet a sixteen-year-old superhuman: Agent Six of Hearts. He's the strongest, most effective agent in the Deck, a team of special agents fighting to uphold justice in a completely corrupt world. Six would be invincible...if not for a deadly secret. He is the product of an illegal experiment by the Lab- a ruthless division of the corporation that controls his world. When the Deck begins to investigate the Lab, Six walks a tightrope between his two worlds, trying to keep his origin secret. But then, he meets Kyntak, a boy whose past equals his own. As Six's life spirals out of control, he must face his most dangerous mission yet, in this nonstop-action thriller from twenty-two-year-old debut author Jack Heath.

He's not a double agent. Everyone just thinks he is. Agent Six of Hearts, a sixteen-year-old superhuman, is in serious trouble. The Deck, the team of special agents who employ him, thinks he's gone rogue. Kyntak, his twin brother, has been captured by an unknown enemy. And, a very strange and lethal girl is shadowing Six's every move. Who can Six trust? The Queen of Spades is after him. The King of Hearts seems unable to help. And, the rest of the Deck is being turned against him. There's only one answer: Six must go solo. He must treat everyone as a threat, and he must grab every opportunity he has to track down Kyntak, even when they come from some potentially deadly sources. As he did in The Lab, author Jack Heath starts with a bang and doesn't ever slow down as he gives us an agent on the brink of destruction and the edge of his life.
