Review Detail

This book was the amazing finale of the trilogy that I hoped it would be. The sleek gaffs that Cal and his friends pull off are so fun and intricate. I love that they purposely lead the head crime boss, Mr. Fox into thinking they are bumbling idiots while they put all the pieces into place to pull off the biggest gaff in the most impossible of places.
The secrets that are revealed are everything that I had been dying to know for three books. Foxtail is a character that has made me crazy curious and often frustrated not to know why she is impervious to magic, so skilled, and has a weird faceplate. I can usually guess where an author is going with a character, but I truly did not expect what was revealed. Even secrets that I had not realized were secrets but were woven into the previous books all came together flawlessly and I was nothing but impressed at the author’s ability to make such a tight storyline.
Cal knows that the Eye of the Dragon is not telling him everything. This book reveals the Eye's plans and Cal realizes he has been the ultimate mark. He finds help in unexpected ways and from unexpected people. With literally the fate of the entire world at stake he must be at his top game to survive.
This series is perfect for fans who enjoy series such as Spy School, City Spies, and the Notorious Scarlett and Browne. Overall, it was an action-packed Ocean Elevens-style book full of intrigue and suspense perfect for Middle Grade audiences.
