Condition: BRAND NEW Format: Paperback ISBN: 9781444914115 Publisher: Hodder Children's Books Age Range: 12-15 years Overview: Lone Wolf is Book 16 in Robert Muchamore's number one bestselling CHERUB series, and the fourth title in the CHERUB 2 sequence following agent Ryan Sharma. This fast, gritty spy thriller drops readers into the world of undercover teenage intelligence agents, drug gangs and street crime. Written for young adults aged 12 and up, it delivers Muchamore's trademark blend of authentic danger, moral complexity and page-turning pace, making it a brilliant standalone read or a satisfying continuation for existing CHERUB fans. About the Book: Fay has spent eighteen months locked up in a Secure Training Centre, and drug deals and rip-offs are the only things this streetwise teenager really knows. Back out on the street, she's looking to settle old scores - but CHERUB agents Ryan and Ning need her knowledge of the local drug trade to help dismantle a dangerous importation network operating right under the police's nose. As Fay is drawn back into a world she thought she'd escaped, the CHERUB team must work fast to keep their own identities hidden while gaining her trust. Muchamore doesn't shy away from the harsh realities his young characters face - addiction, exploitation, and the blurred line between victim and criminal - while keeping the plot moving with covert surveillance, tense confrontations and unexpected betrayals. As with every CHERUB novel, the story balances relentless action with genuine emotional stakes: agents are ordinary teenagers carrying extraordinary responsibility, and the consequences of failure feel real. Lone Wolf works well both as an introduction to the CHERUB 2 era for new readers and as a rewarding instalment for those who have followed the series from the very beginning, offering closure, tension and plenty of twists along the way. Fans of fast-paced, realistic YA thrillers will find plenty to love here, and it's an ideal next read for anyone who enjoys action-driven fiction with real substance behind the adrenaline.
