In book number 5 of the ‘idiot spy’ series, mayhem becomes the operative word of the group as they continue to witness the wrath of their enemies, both foreign and domestic. In this book, a former adversary, now a valuable informant, is murdered at one of the group’s getaways, for reasons unrelated to the Carbon Factor formula. As usual, the group is under extreme pressure to turn over the remaining aspects of the Carbon Factor formula or suffer the consequences. Money continues to flow into their coffers from a lack of payment to those who were unsuccessful in terminating them. New additions to the group occur-death still plagues and pursues them-the former extractionist delivers a baby boy in the mysterious outback. And, the stork continues to fly to another awfully familiar place. A distant family member is appointed to upgrade their defenses. The resultant changes yield a weapons system of apocalyptic proportions-mechanized mayhem!
