The NERDS, a team of school-based superspies, face their toughest challenge yet: a former teammate turned enemy. Stripped of their high-tech abilities by a computer genius, Duncan “Gluestick” Dewey and his friends must rely on courage and cleverness to thwart the villainous duo. Can they outsmart their foes and save the day without their usual gadgets? Dive into a world where espionage meets elementary school antics, and discover if bravery and brains are enough to overcome betrayal.

From the publisher

The excitement of international espionage combined with the awkwardness of elementary makes for non-stop laughs in NERDS, the hilarious series from New York Times bestselling author Michael Buckley! The last time we met the NERDS, a team of superspies operating out of their school basement, they were using their high-tech abilities to stop an evil genius from destroying the world. Now they’re up against one of their own–a former teammate determined to destroy them. His unlikely henchman? A computer genius who still lives with his mom. The evil duo manage to strip the spies of their incredible abilities. Can Duncan “Gluestick” Dewey and the rest of the NERDS team fight evil using just old-fashioned bravery and smarts?
