Sixteen-year-old spy Kari (Two Lies and a Spy) returns for another adventure replete with physical action and breakneck speed. Now the stakes are even higher: her little brother Charlie is held hostage, one of his fingers cut off each day she's late completing a mission. Thin dialogue aside, readers will root for likable Kari as they compulsively turn the pages.
