For official purposes, these agents do not exist. They are sent out on missions to spy on terrorists, hack into crucial documents, and gather intel on global threats--all without gadgets or weapons. It is a highly dangerous job, but these agents have one crucial advantage: Adults never suspect that teens are spying on them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Killing\u003c\/i\u003e, James is assigned to what looks like a routine mission. Leon is a small-time crook with big money. James's job is to make nice with Leon's kids, dig up some leads, and infiltrate his home.
