Countdown

Special Agents #3

by Sam Hutton

The third title in this thrilling new crime series that puts young people at the heart of the action. Strong characters, believable dialogue, authentic locations and compelling plots delivering maximum excitement for the young adult market.


Danny, Maddie and Alex are trainee special agents with Police Investigation Command. When they're briefed on an 'ice-cream war' at first they think it's some kind of joke. But when they hear that thugs and enforcers are moving in on legitimate licence-holders of ice cream and hot dog vans and that traders are being beaten up and even murdered, they know that there's danger on the streets. Link this with visiting politicians and attending a performance at the Royal Albert Hall, plus the protection of a priceless jewel…it's no surprise that the three teenage agents have a major protection job on their hands.

[Doh Young · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book is a very well-written book. Sam Hutton really makes you think about what is going to happen next. The Prima is very greedy and two-faced. In my opinion the book would be better if the bad guys killed some of the main characters. The romance at the ice-cream van was intriguing however I did not like the main story. I recommend this book to people who like crime and action and spy-stuff.
