The Killing by Robert Muchamore
As a teen special agent, James is used to going undercover. But he's not used to playing dead.... This action-packed CHERUB novel features an edgy new look!CHERUB agents are highly trained, extremely talented--and all under the age of seventeen. For official purposes, these agents do not exist. They are sent out on missions to spy on terrorists, hack into crucial documents, and gather intel on global threats--all without gadgets or weapons. It is an extremely dangerous job, but these agents have one crucial advantage: Adults never suspect that teens are spying on them.
In The Killing, James is assigned to what looks like a routine mission. Leon is a small-time crook with big money. James's job is to make nice with Leon's kids, dig up some leads, and infiltrate his home. But when James suddenly unravels a much larger plot, the mission becomes anything but ordinary. Unfortunately, the only person who might know the truth is a reclusive eighteen-year-old boy--who happens to have died more than a year ago.
In 1972, ROBERT MUCHAMORE was born in Islington. He aspired to be an architect, a photographer, or a writer as a teenager. He gathered enough money to buy a word processor and set his heart on writing after learning that architects must train for seven years and quitting his Saturday job in a photographic shop. The only issue was that he had no idea what to write. So he got a regular job and worked as a private investigator for thirteen years.
His nephew's complaints about the dearth of excellent reading material prompted him to pick up his pen again. The CHERUB and Henderson's Boys series by Robert is a worldwide bestseller. Robert developed an interest in indie bands like Joy Division, The Pogues, and The Smiths as a result of mix tapes supplied to him by his older brother. Rock War was inspired by the fact that many of Robert's admirers wore the logos of long-dead rock bands to book signings, as well as the fact that his online fan forum had more kids discussing about the X-Factor than his novels.
