Reader’s Review
First book in a new adventure series about a group of children from around the world who are undercover spies for a branch of the British government. A fun and captivating read for preteens and teens with limited violence or objectionable content.
To look out for
- Islamic Values: Children are spies for the British government and engage in a lot of hacking. One of the kids uses magic tricks to spy and trick others.
- Violence: Main character lives in a foster home where he is locked on the roof as punishment. Children come across a room of skulls. Tranquilizer guns are used in the final fight; children avert a deadly virus.
