While I'm not the target audience for this book I loved it so much. The PEP Squad books are one of those rare ones that defy age barriers and draw you in no matter how old you are. Set in a boarding school that trains youngsters to become spies, the plot is fresh, fun, and strangely believable (or maybe this shows my wishful thinking!).
Jess is a great main character, smart resourceful, a brilliant role model and a hard worker. Her relationship with her room mate Emily and 2 Australian boys flow so well and are brilliantly made pillars by the author for the story that follows.
You can tell the author has really done her research well, I learnt quite a few things about spy craft, forensics, orienteering and society from this book!
The pace was fast, the themes of hard work, friendship and ingenuity were light but done well. I immediately went looking for the next book in the series and was sad to see it was yet to be released. I wait in keen anticipation and in the mean time highly recommend the series to young and old.
