The Inspector has had a tip-off about a Russian spy, and he needs the boys to spy on the men he suspects.
It's the most dangerous job they've undertaken to date.
And if the spy realises he is being watched, their lives could be in danger.
But for the impoverished street urchins, a five-pound fee is too good to turn down...
Can Alfie find the spy without endangering the lives of his family?
