About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their middle-schooler or young teen is looking for a fast-paced escape that centers on personal bravery and the ability of young people to handle immense pressure. It is an ideal choice for a reader who thrives on high stakes and cinematic action but might struggle to stay engaged with slower, character-driven dramas. The story follows twins Rich and Jade Chance as they are caught in a siege at the White House, forcing them to use their wits and teamwork to protect the President and prevent a global catastrophe. While the plot involves international espionage and military threats, the heart of the book is about siblings relying on one another and stepping up when the adults in the room are compromised. It is age-appropriate for the 10 to 15 range, offering a 'James Bond' style experience tailored for a younger audience, emphasizing responsibility and resilience in the face of danger.
