Here we go, round three for Alex Rider, the fourteen year old MI6 spy.

 

In this adventure Alex has not only been asked to overview Wimbledon, where he figured out that a Chinese triad “Circle” is cheating to win the gambling.

He is also been asked to work the CIA. Here he should be the son of an American spy “couple” to get into Cuba / Skeleton Key, this scheme is to show Cuba that everything is fine with this family and not spies.

The security system at the Cuba airport is not a joke as the CIA and MI6 thought, so it is quite clear for the target the a former Russian General, that they are on his feet. He had bought a nuclear bomb, and CIA wants to know why.

 

He has been also to create a friendship with Sabina, a girl who also worked at Wimbledon, with whom he is going on vacation.

 

I have to say I didn’t like this book as much as the ones before, this comes with the stuff Alex is doing, like fighting a white shark on his own.

Anyway I’m looking forward to read the next one.
