Spied: A Deceptive High Novel | YA Spy Academy Mystery

Spied: A Deceptive High Novel kicks off the world of Deceptive High, where secrets are currency, loyalty is tested, and being normal is never an option.

Dion and Lanelle Sparks are twins counting down the days to their last summer before high school. For Dion, life’s simple—keep his girlfriends straight and his parents off his back. For Lanelle, it’s about choosing her next protective style and avoiding unnecessary drama.

Then, one night, their parents drop a bomb: they’re both being enrolled in Douglas High, a private boarding school. Dion thinks it sounds cool. Lanelle thinks it sounds like a trap.

But Douglas High isn’t just a prep school—it’s a training ground for teenage spies.
And their parents? Yeah, they’re spies too.

Suddenly, Dion and Lanelle are thrown into a world of gadgets, disguises, and hidden agendas. Lanelle’s struggling to keep up, Dion’s chasing adventure, and both are realizing that the greatest lies aren’t always told by enemies—they’re told by family.

With new powers come new enemies, dangerous tests, and a campus full of students who might not be who they claim to be.
Can the twins survive life at Deceptive High, or will the truth destroy them first?
