Point Blanc by Anthony Horowitz

'For first class thrills, spills and adventure,
look no further than Alex Rider...'

'Horowitz will grip you with suspense, daring and cheek - and that's just the first page!... Prepare for action scenes as fast as a movie.' The Times

Fourteen-year-old super spy Alex Rider swings back into action in Point Blanc.

Investigations into the 'accidental' deaths of two of the world's most powerful men have revealed just one link: both had a son attending Point Blanc Academy - an exclusive school for rebellious rich kids, run by the sinister Dr Grief and set high on an isolated mountain peak in the French Alps.

Armed only with a false ID and a new collection of brilliantly disguised gadgets, Alex must infiltrate the academy as a pupil and establish the truth about what is really happening there.

Point Blanc is the thrilling sequel to Storm Breaker!
