Danny Watts' grandfather, Fergus, was a Deniable Operator in the SAS before he was betrayed, imprisoned, and falsely denounced as a traitor. Now Fergus has escaped, but the real traitor is determined to silence Fergus and Danny for good. Together Danny and Fergus are forced to go on the run in an against-the-odds battle for survival. As they try to clear Fergus' name, Danny learns all the military field craft, trade skills, and covert operations techniques that are second nature to his grandfather. When Fergus is recaptured, Danny must put those skills to the test and rescue Fergus before it's too late.

In this sequel to Traitor (Putnam, 2005), Danny and his ex-SAS grandfather, Fergus Watts, survive an attempt on their lives while hiding out in Spain. They stop running and return to the UK with the hope of clearing their names and resuming a normal life, and are recruited to help uncover a corrupt MI5 agent who, at the same time, is trying to have them killed. Danny enlists the help of his friend Elena so that he and Fergus can accomplish the impossible: breaking into the heavily secured British Ministry of Defense in order to get official proof of Fergus's background and save their lives. The police are on high alert because of a series of suicide bombings carried out by teenagers, and MI5 tries to frame Danny as a terrorist.

But in order to do this, they must infiltrate the drug production network and once again get behind enemy lines, even fighting alongside their nemesis, Special Agent Deveraux. After all that they have been through, will Danny and Fergus finally be able to stop running?

Two ninth graders, Clara and Amos, suddenly find their lives turned upside down by their families, by each other, and by the two meanest brothers in town.

CLAIRE VOYANTE HAS been having strange visions ever since she can remember. But the similarity between her name and her talents is purely coincidental.

This novel is a fascinating look at belief and the interplay between the rational and the religious. Fifteen-year-old Aslaug has been isolated from family and friends; her only companion has been her mother and after weeks of waning health, her mother dies. Aslaug attempts to bury her in the back yard, which draws the attention of a grumpy old neighbor and the police. Her mother had been self-medicating with plants and herbs, and some of the plants have toxic qualities. They are toxic enough to draw attention, and Aslaug is accused of having poisoned her mother. The novel moves back and forth between Aslaug's trial for murder and the story of her life and experiences. Her life is surreal, a life of innocence disconnected from the realities of our culture. The courtroom is represented by the stark questions and answers of the witnesses and the lawyers, the twisting of words and the interpretations of those who have no understanding of the isolated upbringing of Aslaug. The story of Aslaug's life is one entrenched in charismatic religious belief and incestuous relationships, a full circle replicating her mother's supposed "virgin" pregnancy and her own birth. The juxtaposition of innocence and incest is an eerie, disturbing and thought-provoking exploration of religious belief and pagan superstitions, calling into question what is reality and what might be madness.
