An introduction to the Secret Agent Code

Jake Saunders surfing holiday is interrupted when he witnesses the disappearance of the Prime Minister's son and then discovers that he belongs to a family of Secret Agents.

His 'Double O' Dad talks him through the CROCODILES Code which is a "How to" list 
for Secret Agents, before they attempt an amazing rescue.


This hilarious comedy for children is an introduction to the ideas of virtues and values as used by the British Army in their CDRILS values and standards.  See this Youtube video.

Each of the letters in the acrostic CROCODILES forms the basis of each chapter's amusing story about Jake's Secret Agent family.  

The Secret Agent Code was also written to inspire the creative writing skills of children.  At the back of the book, the author provides a Top Tips section that provides advice on how to write well and how to self-publish your work for free.
