The case
Here's the situation
On Thursday night a meteor came down two miles outside Ridgemont. Inside it, the Agency found a tiny escape pod, open and empty. Whoever was in it is small, probably cold, and the Agency believes they are hiding in town as one of four people.
Your agent joins the Ridgemont Agency's Field Agent Program, logs in to a friendly HQ computer, and works through ten short missions: clearing suspects, decoding a letter written in an alien alphabet, and running real (safe) science tests at the kitchen table. Every mission is tap-to-answer, so younger readers can play with confidence.
Spoiler-free: everything on this page is safe for your detective to read.

Questions about this case
Read all questions →Is it right for a 7-year-old?
Yes. Operation Stowaway was written for ages 7 to 12. Missions are short, answers are tapped rather than typed, and every screen uses plain words. Younger agents enjoy it most with a grown-up co-agent nearby.
Do we need to buy anything?
Almost everything is in the kit. One later mission is a kitchen-science activity that needs a few common grocery items and three glass jars; we email you the short shopping list well before you need it.
Is there anything hot or messy?
One step involves warming a sugar syrup on the stove. It is clearly marked as a grown-up step, and the instructions come in a separate envelope addressed to you.
How long does it take?
Ten missions over roughly ten weeks, at your agent's own pace. A mission is usually one or two sittings of 20 to 30 minutes. Nothing runs on a timer.
Is it scary?
Not at all. The visitor is friendly and the story is about helping, keeping a secret and working things out.
