The parents of Aidan and Meg Falconer made a deal with an agent of the CIA CIA: see Central Intelligence Agency.


(1) (Confidentiality Integrity Authentication) The three important concerns with regards to information security. Encryption is used to provide confidentiality (privacy, secrecy).
 to work for the government covertly. Something happens and they are tried and sent to prison. Aidan and Meg meet a similar fate until, through a fluke, they are able to escape. They are on a mission to find out what really happened to their parents, as they are fugitives from the law. What I enjoyed was how many people along the way helped the two children escape the law enforcement agents out to return them to the government facility. The characters are believable while the writing is tight in a very fast paced thriller that is the first of three novels of a series. I look forward to the two other tales and hope they are as good as this one.
