Carl hacks into Fort Knox just to prove he can; he unlocks the doors and doesn't steal any money. But this British teenager has gotten in way over his head. Americans take him to a Guantánamo Bay–like detention center in the Arctic, where he suffers physical and emotional abuse. Terrorist plots and icy getaways fuel this action-packed thriller.
