"An investigation into the "accidental" deaths of two of the world's most powerful men have revealed just one link. Both had a son attending Point Blanc Academy - an exclusive school for rebellious rich kids, run by the sinister Dr. Grief and set high on an isolated mountain peak in the French Alps. Alex must infiltrate the academy as a pupil and establish the truth about what is really happening there. Before he knows it, Alex is stuck in a remote boarding school high atop the French Alps with the sons of the rich and powerful, and something feels wrong. These former juvenile delinquents have turned well-behaved, studious-and identical-overnight."
