Cherub: The Killing

The Killing is a great book. Again, like the rest of the Cherub series, James is the main character. This is the fourth book in the series. I am only 200 or so pages into the book, so I haven't finished, but so far James has been sent on a mission. He has to find out about the Tarasovs. A family that the British Intelligence has been tracking for a while, and they think has been behind some casino robberies, and hijacking cars. James and David Moss, the other kid that is on the mission with James, have to figure out if the Tarasov family is really behind these robberies and hijacking these cars. James and David are asked by Leon, the dad of the Tarasov family, to go steal a car. Leon owns a secondhand car dealership and he also owns two casinos. They are asked to steal the car, which is a Porsche GT2 RS. A car that in the U.S., would have a starting cost of $245,000. James and David hijack the car and get away with it. This now gives them evidence that Leon is behind the hijacking cars thing. James starts to become friends with all of the neighbors and kids. He acquires a computer from one of these friends that belonged to her older brother. The computer started to heat up and smoke because the fan was jammed. When they looked in the fan in order to fix it, they found drugs and CD's in the fan. This lead them to think that maybe Leon was also in the drug business. The CD's had information on them that James couldn't under stand so he sent them to the British Intelligence. That is how far I am right now.

  2. I also enjoy the books in the Cherub series. They are always action packed, interesting, and a good read. I recently finished the third book in the series, and now will probably start this one. Thank you for giving me a preview of the book, Lewis.
