Product Information

The RRP is the suggested or Recommended Retail Price of a product, set by the publisher or manufacturer. This is a welcome return to the Alex Rider world from Anthony Horowitz and as ever, it's full of action set pieces where Alex has to use his ingenuity and very little in the way of gadgetry. [...] It zips along at a fast pace and is a lot of fun to read. * NetGalley Reviewer * When his best friend Tom is abducted, Alex Rider is given an ultimatum by Nightshade - a sinister cult of assassins with a score to settle. But what twisted evil are they planning, and how is it connected to a revolutionary new gaming system? This much-awaited new book in the bestselling Alex Rider series continues Alex’s fight against the deadly assassins encountered in the last book, Nightshade. Alex still has unfinished business with this sinister group made up of brainwashed children, not least trying to reunite MI6 chief Mrs Jones, along with her long lost son and daughter. The adventure takes us deep into the life-changing world of augmented reality, where even Alex will struggle to succeed against the technology. A thrilling new challenge for the world’s best-loved teen superspy.

Tulip Jones (also referred to as Mrs Jones) arrives at the Headquarters of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. She is there to meet the Permanent Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, Dominic Royce. He tells Mrs Jones that he had found out that she had employed Alex Rider, saying that she was acting against the law and tells her to never use Alex again. Mrs Jones reveals that she did not want to be a spy; she started out wanting to be a humanitarian, working to stop bad things happening in foreign countries. She was at university, preparing a doctoral thesis on climate change and how it affects developing countries, when she was approached to work at Special Operations. She started as an analyst, before eventually becoming Alan Blunt’s second in command. In that time, she met a German political writer called Hans, who she fell in love with and married (though she kept her maiden name). Later, they became parents to two children, a boy called William and a girl called Sofia. Alex saw their picture at Mrs Jones’ apartment, when SCORPIA sent him to kill her (as depicted in Scorpia); this revelation startles him, as he thought of them as a nephew and niece, never once believing Mrs Jones to be a mother.
