Peta Jones is an ordinary girl struggling with the loss of her father, an army hero who died in mysterious circumstances. When she receives clues that he may still be alive, but noone believes her, she embarks on a dangerous rescue across the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean to a clifftop castle, home to a billionaire in exile. Soon Peta discovers that what some people will do for money, she will do for truth and hope.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

... this adventure thriller is a marked change of direction for Bennett but she pulls it off beautifully, getting right to the heart of her protagonist and family secrets. --Fiona Noble, The Bookseller

... this is one of the best thrillers for 12+ I ve read since Anthony Horowitz s Alex Rider series. Peta is both a believable modern teenager and an action heroine of jaw-dropping courage ... Bennett has combined social conscience and emotional intelligence with hilariously accurate depictions of the fashion and pop music scenes. This one is outstanding, and will fill a holiday with zest. --Amanda Craig, The New Statesman

...a fast-paced and richly imagined adventure. --Julia Eccleshare, Lovereading4kids
