Only the Good Spy Young
pg. 265
In my book, Cammie is a seventeen year-old girl who goes to the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women which is actually a school for spies in training. However Cammie has lots more to worry about than just her schoolwork. She is being chased after by an international terrorist group called the Circle of Cavan. That is horrible enough but then she finds out that her teacher, Mr. Solomon, has been part of this group since he was sixteen. This means that he is being tracked down by the CIA and MI6 but they haven't caught him yet. He finds Cammie though and gives her a very confusing message of "Follow the pigeons" which eventually leads her to her father's journal. As the book goes on Cammie goes through many journeys including finding her deceased father's (who was also a spy) journal. In this journal it explains that Cammie's father and Mr. Solomon had been trying to stop the Circle and that is how he died. This means that Mr. Solomon is innocent. Cammie realizes this a little too late though because by the time she has made this realization Mr. Solomon has been captured by the CIA and then taken by the Circle. That takes Cammie and her friends on a mission to save Mr. Solomon and themselves. After a shocking run in with members of the Circle, swords, explosives, and taking a dangerous jump from a waterfall Cammie and her friends are safe. Mr. Solomon has been reported "dead" and an unaccounted for person is healing in their school hospital. After all this Cammie realizes that whoever she is with will not be safe with her since the Circle is after her, so she runs.
I predict that in the next book Cammie will attempt to finish her father's mission and take down the Circle of Cavan.

  1. This book sounds really good. I think I heard about a book like this in middle school. Why is Cammie being chased by the Circle? Is the book very suspenseful? It seems like it would be.
