A dark and shocking conclusion to the bestselling Alex Rider missions.
This gripping final mission brings together Alex Rider's old enemies to frame the teenage superspy in an unstoppable plot of revenge, from which he can never return. Pursued from Europe to North Africa and Cairo's city of the dead – this is the twistiest and most deadly plot of any Alex Rider mission yet, and will reveal Smithers' ultimate gadget and see the shock death of a major character.

Anthony Horowitz is one of the most popular contemporary children’s writers and his Alex Rider series is enjoyed by millions of readers worldwide. He has been writing since the age of eight, and professionally since the age of twenty. In addition to the Alex Rider books, he is also the writer and creator of award winning detective series Foyle’s War, and more recently event drama Collision, among his other television works he has written episodes for Poirot, Murder in Mind, Midsomer Murders and Murder Most Horrid.
His ninth and final adventure cleverly combines the usual parodically convoluted plot with shrewd analysis of both teenage angst and geopolitics. This country's anxiety over our declining importance is a theme, but Alex, resourceful as Bond and world-weary as George Smiley, can make you feel still proud to be British. * Daily Telegraph * This is the most twisty, deadly plot of any Alex Rider mission yet... Perfect for older readers. -- Stacia Briggs * Norwich Evening News *
