Maya Brown is bored with being cooped up in her nan's house over the summer, and dying to get involved in her mum's intelligence operation against a group of would-be terrorists. But when her mum is kidnapped by the criminals, Maya is suddenly plunged headlong into a world of intrigue and danger. Can Maya find out what the terrorist cell are plotting in time, and without putting her mother's life at risk? And is the mysterious Khaled luring her into a trap, or is he a secret ally?

Product Description

Review

Four stars: A lightening-fast, high octane thriller… The book's success lies in the fact that explorations of motive and meaning do not slow down the page-turning urgency that lies at the heart of all thrillers. (Books for Keeps )

Deals with issues of racism, violence and religion with delicacy and sensitivity, while managing to give us a fast-paced, high-octane ride from start to finish. (Armadillo Magazine )

By Gemma Jones
Format:Paperback
Very fast-paced and gripping from the start, cant understand previous review about it getting a bit lost? Good story and character development and background that's all! The only trouble is read it all in about three sittings because I could not put it down!

5.0 out of 5 stars An educational page-turner. Must-read 29 Jan 2011
By Hannah Stevens
Format:Paperback
This book has it all - action, adventure, a feisty female (for once!) protagonist and gritty realism, not to mention the complex and highly prevalent issues that it negotiates with maturity and sensitivity. This book is a gift for teachers, parents and teenagers because it tackles racial prejudice, terrorism and religion with incredible honesty and sensitivity. An educational, emotional and thrilling page-turner. I will certainly be using this in my classroom.
