Still good, but I liked the first 2 better.
Now the kids are back in London, at an official spy training school--since they seem to need it. Soon after that is complete, they are sent off to Brazil. Maybe it's the training, but it seems like they're seeing suspicious characters all over the place!
Once they arrive, they find out that tensions are running high between the villagers they're staying with and some land developers. The kids get the feeling that no-one is telling the full story, but they're not sure who to trust. As things come to a head, the kids will have to use all the skills they have learned. Their survival, and the survival of their new friends depends on it!
p.s. Be ready for some surprises!

This one veered away from the "kids getting chased by bad guys" formula that was quite successful in the first two. Helping the villagers prevail against the avaricious land developers was good, but not nearly as exciting to read about as the others.
Content: I would say this one had the fewest intense scenes, of the three.

For me, this book was kind of boring. Maybe for a 4th or 5th grader it would be better. The last few pages were exciting, but it took that long for the "bad guys" to finally show up.
