LitPick Review
In Spy High: Mission Three by A. J. Butcher, Jennifer Chen, a member of the Bond team, runs away from Deveraux Academy to her home in Undertown, Los Angeles, in order to get revenge on a street gang called the Serpents. When Jennifer was only eight, the Serpents killed her family in front of her, because her father refused to pay for protection. The Serpents left her behind as an example to others. Other than Jake Daly who goes after Jennifer, the rest of the Bond team travels to the Stoker Institute to learn about a fatal new drug called Drac. This drug turns its users into zombies with a craving for blood. After a hectic scene at the institute, they set off to Undertown and face the dangers of the city, as they too seek revenge.
Opinion:
This was an exciting book with a few unexpected twists. I like A. J. Butcher's style of writing, with his elaborate explanations of objects and occurrences in the book. I also liked the way he incorporated humor throughout sections of the book. The story was suspenseful and it kept my interest. I would recommend it to anyone who liked the first two Spy High books.
