Jason likes chess. He's pretty good at it too - a level eight on his computer programme, with level ten being Grand Master level. He's also good at systems, having contributed to the relational database that has streamlined his school's administration. Jason's school, Easingdale Comprehensive, is very big on technology and its head, Mr Johnston, is keen to involve his pupils wherever they show promise. So Jason's friends have also helped out. Liz is great with hardware and helped with the school's card reader system. Becky has a flair for software and has recommended lots of curriculum-enhancing apps. And Bill is a talented programmer...
...so far, so geeky and techie. But Jason and his friends are about to encounter a new friend. And although this friend will introduce himself via technology and a hidden part of the internet, he is as far from a technical being as you could imagine. But what could this otherworldly messenger want with our four friends? He has a mission for them, of course!
A gang of forgers has taken over nearby Easingdale Castle as a base for operations. The gang plans to destabilise the UK economy by flooding it with forged £20 notes. This gang is well-prepared - flying under the radar so making it impossible for the police to get a search warrant. And, even if they did, Easingdale Castle has a moat and drawbridge and the gang would be able to flee with the evidence long before the police could gain access.
