Kirkus ReviewsIn the third book of a spy-and-terrorist–jammed series, breathless pacing helps to minimize several flaws. The president's daughter has been kidnapped by a secret group of terrorists. Hot on their trail are teenagers Q and his new stepsister, Angela, and a large enough gathering of other agents on the good-guy side to make a score card helpful for keeping track. Among them are Malak, Angela's mother, who has gone undercover and is pretending to be a member of the "ghost cell," and Boone and his aged dog, Croc, who share some supernatural capabilities from an unexplained source. Complicating the chase down Interstate 95 is a Category 1 hurricane that seems to function merely as a device to provide bad weather for the first part of the chase, a suspicion underscored by the fact that it leaves nearly insignificant aftereffects just hours later, when most of the action occurs near where the hurricane made landfall.
