The thirteenth book in the series; Nightshade , was confirmed by Anthony Horowitz in May It follows Alex in a battle against a new criminal organisation Nightshade after the death of Scorpia which Mrs Jones had been reading a document about at the end of Never Say Die.
It is a year old boy - Frederick Grey - who was presumed dead. The MI6-agents final words tell about a terrorist attack by 'Nightshade'. Mrs Jones recognizes her daughter when she sees a picture of Grey's escaped partner.
Alex is sent by Mrs. Jones to pretend to be Julius Grief at the Gibraltar prison where Julius was before escaping at the start of Scorpia Rising and where Frederick is being held and learn about the organisation Frederick works for. Unable to get the right information, when Alex becomes friends with Frederick, he decides to escape with Frederick and then infiltrate Nightshade's base of operations, an abandoned military base in Crete.
There he learns that Nightshade uses brainwashed children to work as mercenaries for a group of Americans calling themselves the Teachers.

Alex prevents the attack on the MP's, gathered at the cathedral for a funeral, by disabling the Teacher's communication system with their child agents.
