Schoolkids one moment, accused terrorists the next. When his mysterious uncle is murdered, 16-year-old Will Roberts and best friend Eliza are dragged into the machinations of a deranged mastermind bent on slaughter at an unfathomable scale.

With the help of old friends and unexpected allies, they believe they can work out where the madman will strike.
