Tom Cathral is trying to publish a book. There’s just one thing standing in his way. No, not reduced adult attention spans contributing to the overall decline of print media — we’re talking a secret paramilitary group that will stop at nothing until Tom is dead and every copy of the book is destroyed. Audiences have one question: Why couldn’t this have happened to Dan Brown? Tom joins a covert organization known as The Retrievers. When it turns out The Retrievers are more about “killing people” than “fetching tennis balls in the park and being told they’re a good boy,” Tom quits. But not before obtaining a shocking manuscript written by a former Retriever that will bring down the entire gang. That manuscript? Diary of a Wimpy Kid #7: The Third Wheel.
