"Now in paperback, the third novel of the Family Spies series, set in the bestselling world of Valdemar, where Heralds Mags and Amily's youngest child must follow in his parents' footsteps to protect both his family and the realm.

Thirteen year old Prince Kyril and Mags and Amily's fourteen-year-old son Tory ""share"" the Gift of Farsight--although neither of them are Chosen. They are self-trained, though currently, their shared Gift only allows them to see what is happening with their immediate family members.

After much debate, the Herald's Collegium has decided to test and train them anyway. That's when the surprises start. They do not share a single Gift; they have two complementary Gifts working together in a way that the Heralds have never seen before. Tory is the Farseer--Kee's Gift is to extend his range beyond a few dozen feet.

Their Gifts become crucial when Mags gets a desperate message from his cousin Bey, the head of the enigmatic assassin-tribe, the Sleepgivers. Bey's eldest daughter has been kidnapped, but he doesn't know why or by whom. He's calling in the debt Mags owes him to find his daughter before it's too late.

Tory is certain that if anyone can find her, he can. But that will mean traveling out of Valdemar into an unknown, dangerous country. And it will mean taking a Royal Prince with him."

Reviews for Spy Spy Again (#3 Family Spies: Valdemar)

Praise for the Valdemar novels Eye Spy feels like a present written especially for me. You're gonna want to read it. This one's a firecracker. --Tor.com Whether it's the spellbinding world, the intrigue of the plot, or the simple yet remarkable narrative style--it is impossible to say which of these makes the story so good, but one thing is for sure: Closer to Home marks the beginning of another fantastic Lackey series. --RT Reviews Mags remains an engaging character, and makes a very capable spy/investigator.... His adventures still make engrossing reading. --Locus Returning to her beloved Valdemar universe, Lackey opens her new series at a pivotal time in the history of Valdemar.... Series fans will enjoy the variations on a familiar theme, while enough information is presented for first- timers to discover a world of high adventure and individual courage. Highly recommended. --Library Journal Closer to the Heart has the two things that have always made me love these books: a richly detailed history of the world, and beautiful writing. --The Arched Doorway Lackey is a master at characterization. --The Ranting Dragon
