Fourteen-year-old secret agent Alex Rider is on holiday in southern France with his friend Sabina and her parents. Everything seems perfect, until ruthless assassin Yassen Gregorovich arrives. Shortly after, Sabina's father is nearly killed in a devastating explosion.
It turns out Sabina's father was writing a story about legendary pop star and humanitarian Sir Damian Cray. Cray has donated millions to charity, is a vegetarian, and insists his concert tickets be printed on recycled paper. A living saint in the eyes of the adoring public, he
claims to want to save the world. But Alex believes he knows the real truth—it's the world that needs saving from Cray.

      Alex Rider is a 14-year-old trained in the art of spy craft and employed by the British intelligence agency MI6. Part James Bond, part RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, this is a marvelous addition to the genre of young adult fiction, which has already spawned several spin-offs and is sure to excite interest in more books. Performed with characteristic grace and astute pacing by British actor Simon Prebble, the story abounds with nail-biting excitement as Prebble brings listeners face-to-face with the horror Alex feels when his best friend's father is injured and he knows the attacker. Now it's up to Alex to protect his friend from a known killer. D.G. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
