YA
This adventure-charged tale uncovers frame-ups, embezzlement, espionage, computer hacking, and a bit of corporate pilfering. Add to the mix three high school juniors, a clandestine week in Paris, and evidence tampering, and readers have a story that rivals any episode of 24. This is diversionary reading at its best, strong on plot and voice and humor, and completely satisfying in the moment.
