Dangerous Secret

ABOUT THE SERIES Ever watched a movie that you didn't want to end? Ever rented a video that had you so engrossed you didn't notice the passing of time? Where you lived that story? They're just movies, right? It's not real . . . or is it? Vidz is a multi-book series of fast-paced, entertaining and quirky stories involving four characters. Hamish, Kaz, Bo and Abbey are students at Capra Video High School, a place for talented young video-makers. Life should be normal at Capra High, but the four find their world turned upside down when they are chosen to form the Vidz team. Each must enter a Vidz and defeat evil, to stop that evil growing in the real world. There's no script to go by, no manual to read - they're on their own and only they can do it. It's a fight to the climax, a fight to the closing credits, and a fight that will get tougher and tougher with each title as the stakes are raised. ABOUT THE BOOK When Hamish wrote an embarrassing essay about how movies meant more to him than real life, he thought only a teacher would read it. But he wasn't counting on nosy classmates, a smarmy bursar, and a mysterious note in his locker saying, 'You have been chosen to fight evil. This is not a prank!' The note-writer gives Hamish a Vidz and tells him to watch it alone. Hamish soon learns that it's no joke. The Vidz throws him into 'A Dangerous Secret', a movie starring Sir Hamish, the people's champion. Hamish doesn't mind sword and sorcery movies ndash; but not when he's the knight, he's forgotten where he left his sword, an angry mob is chasing him and he's lost his memory after being tortured in the king's dungeons. He can yell 'Cut!' to go back to the real world, but the evil Lord Dudley's power is growing in the Vidz and strange things are happening at Capra Video High School ndash; and Hamish is the only person who can do something about it.
