This a great action-packed book. There are two sequels, Payback and Avenger
  7th_Grade | May 16, 2016 |
Danny Watts's grandfather, Fergus, was a traitor. One of the worst sort. An SAS explosives expert who betrayed his country and his regiment for money. Drug money. He was arrested and left to rot and die in a Columbian jail. At least, that's what seventeen year-old Danny is told when his hopes of becoming a soldier are destroyed for ever. But he knows something the army doesn't seem to know. Fergus Watts is alive and in the UK, living in secret under an assumed name - but where? Fergus is Danny's only living relative. Burning with fury and desire for revenge, Danny sets out to track down his grandfather and expose him. In doing so he sets in train an explosive sequence of events which throw Danny and Fergus together on the run from the people who want Fergus, and now Danny, dead. Packed with breathtaking action, SAS procedures, surveillance and survival techniques, this is a fast-moving, action-packed thriller for teenagers.

When Danny Watts is denied his chance to be in the military, due to the shady past of his grandfather, Danny is determined to track down his grandfather and expose him in the hopes of getting a second chance. His computer whiz friend Elena, helps him. In the course of tracking down his grandfather, he sets off a chain of events that is quite thrilling. Eventually Danny and Fergus are thrown together, and end up on the run from people who want Fergus, and, if need be, Danny dead.
Book two is called Payback. ( )

First words
Fergus had chosen the base camp carefully. He was always careful. Being careful had kept him alive during his twelve years in the Regiment and now that he was operating alone nothing was going to change.
