Alex Rider Season 4 Plot
Alex Rider is an otherwise normal teenager who lives in London with his uncle Ian Rider. Lan posed as a banker, but he was an undercover agent for The Department. Later in the series, we get to see that Alex learns that his uncle was killed in the line of duty as a British spy.
Although Alex Rider knew that his uncle had been killed in a car accident, it was not the actual case. From this moment onwards, young teenage Rider’s life starts taking a new turn.
Alex is approached by Alan Blunt, the head of a shadowy offshoot of MI6 known as the Department. Blunt tells Alex that the latter has been trained without his knowledge since his childhood to face the dangerous and duplicitous world of espionage.
Alex Rider felt the pressure and wanted to investigate the death of his uncle and how it was connected to the assassination of two high-profile billionaires. For further investigation, he reluctantly assumes a whole new identity and goes to a remote boarding school as an undercover agent for the Department.
The name of this boarding school was Point Blanc. It was located way above the snow line in the French Alps, completely isolated from cities or even villages. Point Blanc claims to help troubled teenage children of extremely rich people and set them back on the right track.
But as our hero begins to dig deep, he discovers that the students are the subjects of a notorious plan by the mysterious Doctor Grief — a plan that Alex has to risk his life to stop.
