Who said that building stuff with grandpa wasn’t fun?
Jimmy isn’t your average kid. His idea of fun? Pulling apart radios, bikes, and toasters — then putting them back together in ways that never work quite right. Luckily, he’s got Grandpa Joe at his side: a gruff but loveable ex-Special Forces soldier who fuels Jimmy’s wild imagination with robots, flying machines, and a steady stream of gadgets that sometimes work… and sometimes explode.
But everything changes when Jimmy’s dad — a decorated police officer — is gunned down and later kidnapped by a ruthless crime syndicate. The cops are outmatched, and the clock is ticking. That’s when Joe makes a decision: if the system can’t save his son, he and Jimmy will.
With the help of Joe’s old Special Forces buddies, Jimmy’s fearless next-door neighbour Mary, and an arsenal of homemade inventions (including a souped-up combat wheelchair), this unlikely team embarks on a high-octane rescue mission. From city streets to stormy seas, every step uncovers a bigger conspiracy — one that goes way beyond the kidnapping.
Danger Inc. is part action-adventure, part family drama — blending the heart of Spy Kids, the humour of The Goonies, and the adrenaline of Taken. It’s a story about family, courage, and how even the wildest inventions can change the world… or blow it up.
Genre: Children's Fiction
