Publisher's summary

From internationally best-selling author Anthony Horowitz comes the 12th thrilling installment of the Alex Rider series! Follow the world's greatest teen spy as he sets off to Gibraltar after the death of Scorpia, and enters into a battle against a new criminal organization: Nightshade.

Following the shocking events of Never Say Die, Alex Rider's world has changed: his biggest enemy, the evil organization Scorpia, has been destroyed. Alex is hoping his life can finally go back to normal, that he can go to school and spend time with his friends - but very quickly everything changes. A new and dangerous criminal organization - Nightshade - is rising.

When Alex discovers they've planned a mysterious attack on London, he will stop at nothing to take them down. But protecting his home city means facing off a ruthless new enemy and putting his life at stake, again. And this time, there's no one to save him if he makes a mistake.

The number one New York Times and internationally best-selling Alex Rider series is back with a vengeance in this edge-of-your-seat adventure. Perfect for fans of James Bond and Jason Bourne!

It’s a fun story

The plot is completely far fetched, but still fun. It’s helped by excellent narration and site descriptions.

Alex Rider never disappoints!

Alex always has the best adventures. The author is always so detailed in his books it is like you are right there beside Alex on his missions.

Best Writer Ever!....

and the best narrator too! I’m so glad Simon Prebble has been able to keep telling Alex’s story. Nightshade was a bit different in plot this time, but still the great Alex Rider. The attention to detail, research, and people remain in the book. I’m so very glad he’s still writing!
