Red House Readers say...
A must-have read!When Georges moves to a pokey apartment things look set to be miserable. His mum is always at work and he is teased at school. Then he meets Safer, a 12-year old boy who runs a detective club. He's spying on the mysterious Mr X, convinced he is a murderer. Together the two boys pursue their investigation using some classic spy techniques. But suddenly things come to a dramatic head, where nothing is as it seems. I loved this book! The plot was totally unpredictable and held me spellbound, combining a clear, easy-to-read style with a sense of mystery - perfect for wannabe spies. I would definitely rate this book a fantastic 4.5 out of 5. A must-have read!
