Breaking the Circle is the second book of 'The Maya Brown Missions' series. This book can be read on its own. Overall I would not want my kids reading it now and would wait until they are a bit older. It was a good story though.

It took me a while to review this book because I had to secure a copy of the first book in the series (I hate reading books out of order!). I am a bit confused as to the audience for this book - I found the subjects a bit too mature for the 9-12 crowd but the writing style would not appeal to the 13+ crowd. I wasn't too impressed with the writing style but the topics are prevalent in today's society (unfortunately). I don't think I will seek out the third book in the series.

At the start of the second book in this ongoing series, Maya is mugged by a frightened girl, a young man and a rather aggressive dog. Through pluck and courage, she manages to get her things back but somehow ends up deeper into the crime ring that the two muggers are involved with. It ends up close to home, when the mugging boy shows up at a party as the boyfriend of one her friends, and it's clear that the friend is into drugs, which the boy is selling. Maya is pulled into a world of drugs and human trafficking.

An interesting series concept, with Maya following in the footsteps of her adoptive mother secret agent Pam. It feels a bit After School Special to me - like when Kay freely admits early on to drug use and potential prostitution. Not sure if this is appropriate for middle school, and really don't see a high school audience for it.
