Eagle Strike

Horowitz, Anthony. Eagle Strike. NY: Philomel Books, 2004. 256 pages. (Action / Adventure Series)

The main character in this book was a boy named Hunter. This book was about Hunter’s uncle, a spy who was assassinated on a family vacation. Now Hunter was trying to find out who assassinated him. He wanted to make sure the assassin always remember his name, so he tried to convince the police that Yassen Gregorovich was the assassin. Yassen had a huge yacht in the bay to keep a low profile the perfect place to plan his assassinations. When the police got to the crime scene, Yassen was questioned as a suspect. He lied. The police believed him, but Hunter knew that he was lying. The police then asked Hunter to stay out of the investigation before this got too personal for him. In order to find out about the rest of the book, you are going to have to read it.

If I had to label this book with one word it would be “magnificent” because it is a very exciting book for young adults to read . This book was a great book if you like action books and thriller books. I highly recommend this book for young adults.
