About the Book

Book Synopsis

The Cloak Society has risen and heroes will fall in the epic conclusion to the Cloak Society series--a thrilling middle grade trilogy that's perfect for fans of the Alex Rider Adventures and the 39 Clues.

The Cloak Society has finally risen to power--by posing as the saviors of Sterling City. As long as the people believe Cloak's lies, Alex and his friends are all that stand in the way of total Cloak domination. But to bring Cloak to justice, Alex must make a final stand against his parents, his past, and the life of supervillainy he's always known.

Praised by Publishers Weekly for its "rapid-fire, comic book-style action" and by School Library Journal for having "the same wide appeal as Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson books," the Cloak Society trilogy delivers high-stakes battles, extraordinary superpowers, and an original twist on the superhero stories readers know and love. Can a villain ever truly become a hero? In this explosive series finale, the stakes are higher than ever--and the answer will be decided once and for all.

From the Back Cover

A new group of heroes has risen to power.

They've promised to protect Sterling City from the threat of the Cloak Society once and for all. And they have fooled everyone.

Only Alex Knight and his friends know the truth: Cloak has taken over the city--by posing as its beloved superheroes. With the real Rangers of Justice trapped in the Gloom, a second team of villains lurks underground, waiting for the right moment to attack. And this time, they won't just stop at controlling the city. For them, the ultimate prize is something much bigger.

Cloak's grip on Sterling City grows tighter every day. The line between hero and villain has never been more blurred. Alex must find the strength to stand against his parents, his past, and the only world he's ever known. And in order to bring the Cloak Society to justice, he must answer the question: Can a villain ever truly become a hero?
