A
Brook is a Spy,Cody is a Knave
💡 Explanation:
This is a classic logic puzzle. If Alex is the knight (truth-teller), then Cody is the knave (liar), but Cody says he's the spy - which a knave cannot say truthfully. By systematic elimination, we find that Brook is the spy, Cody is the knave, and Alex is the knight.
