People seem to find this book really boring yet I loved it very much was a easy read and very interesting like all the books in this sires it was amazing.

The Sleepwalker continues the CHERUB tradition of an A and B-plot, but this time ties both together much better than previous entries with the throughline of family abuse. Opening with an exciting campus training exercise, Lauren is able to prove herself as an experienced agent which creates an entertaining dynamic with her mission partner, the young and over-eager Jake. I appreciate how this was differentiated with an 'open-approach', and Muchamore explains how the agents' spying technology actually works. James finally gets a bit of poor luck, with even the characters acknowledging how 'jammy' he is, which allows for refreshing character development with Kerry away from action (mostly). I also can't ignore the interweaved plane crash chapters at the beginning, which were truly heartbreaking. The unexpected conclusions involving Jake, the plane crash and the Fahim character all add to the increasingly grey morality in the CHERUB series, which I am appreciating as a reader.

An airliner explodes over the Atlantic leaving 345 people dead. Crash investigators suspect terrorism, but they're getting nowhere. A distressed 12-year-old calls a police hotline and blames his father for the explosion. It could be a breakthrough, but there's no hard evidence.

An airliner explodes over the Atlantic leaving 345 people dead. Crash investigators suspect terrorism, but they're getting nowhere. A distressed twelve-year-old calls a police hotline and blames his father for the explosion. It could be a breakthrough, but there's no hard evidence and the boy has a history of violence and emotional problems. Only CHERUB agents can unearth the truth. They're trained professionals with one essential advantage: adults never suspect that children are spying on them. For official purposes, these children do not exist.
