( ) Jade and Rich Chance are back at school, but looking after themselves at home, whilst their father is away on yet another mission. Their evening peace and quiet is shattered when they hear gunfire close by, followed by the arrival of an old colleague of their father. He seems to be in trouble, so the twins of course, decide to help him and jump right into a new adventure. As they are chased through the night and into the next day, things are not what they at first seemed. Rich manages to get to safety, but Jade is taken hostage and kept in a Middle Eastern country, to persuade Chance to find and hand over something that he had buried years before. Being left for dead in the desert, camel spiders, ancient artifacts and the potential of a nuclear bomb, are used to change the political landscape of one Middle Eastern Kingdom. Can our heroes save the day? There is political wheeling and dealing, plot twists, red herrings and plenty of action. It is a good story for lower to middle secondary students. A good escapist thriller. ### Product Description Jack Higgins, master of the modern thriller, teams up with Justin Richards, bestselling author of Dr Who, to deliver a pulse-pounding new instalment in the adventures of the teenage Chance twins! This third gripping novel about the adventures of teenage twins Rich and Jade Chance takes the action and adventure to a new calibre -- then pulls the trigger! With their secret agent dad in trouble, Jade and Rich are flung into a headlong series of chases, fights and captures that leads them to the arid deserts of the Middle East. There, the pair come up against terrifying new villains and surprising allies as an assassination attempt threatens international relations and a buried secret of the first Gulf War comes explosively to light... ### About the Author Jack Higgins was a soldier and then a teacher before becoming a full-time writer. 'The Eagle Has Landed' turned him into an international bestselling author and his novels have since sold over 250 million copies and been translated into fifty-five languages. Many of them have also been made into successful films. Justin Richards is the author of over a dozen genre and sf novels (including Dr Who). He lives in Warwick with his wife, two sons and a nice view of the castle. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
