I Am the Weapon

Summary

Boy Nobody is the perennial new kid in school, the one that few notice and nobody thinks much about. He shows up in a new high school, in a new town, under a new name, makes few friends and doesn't stay long—just long enough for someone in his new friend's family to die of "natural causes." Mission accomplished, Boy Nobody disappears, and moves on to the next target. When his own parents died of not-so-natural causes, Boy Nobody, at the age of eleven, found himself under the control of the Program, a shadowy government organization that uses brainwashed kids as counterespionage operatives. But somewhere, deep inside Boy Nobody, is somebody: the boy he once was, the boy who wants normal things—like a real home, his parents back—a boy who wants out. And he who just might want those things badly enough to sabotage the Program's next mission.
