United We Spy

March 1, 2014

Gr 6 Up-High school senior Cammie Morgan has survived incredible adventures alongside her best friends Bex and Liz at Gallagher Academy, a top-secret boarding school for girl spies. The signature lighthearted and fast-paced narration features a large cast of characters, but very little exposition. Readers are advised to start with I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You (Hyperion, 2006). In this final series installment, Cammie is bent on uncovering a cabal of villains known as the Circle of Cavan. Using stolen plans from super-genius Liz, the Circle of Cavan is hoping to start World War III and it's up to the jet-setting Gallagher Girls to stop it. Cammie engages in a daring global game of cat and mouse, traveling to Rome, Marseille, and a hidden government compound in the Arctic, juggling conflicts with her mother and boyfriend Zach along the way. Fans will enjoy the touching graduation scene, which brings the series to a satisfying close.-Madigan McGillicuddy, Atlanta-Fulton Public Library, Atlanta, GA
