(All images and reviews uploaded from Red Cedar Book Award site)This is the first book in an absolutely addictive action series about Aiden and Meg Falconer, whose parents have been arrested as spies. The authorities change the kids’ names and put them into a work camp with tough delinquent children “for their own protection”. Then Aiden accidentally sets the barn on fire and, in the ensuing havoc, the two take off on foot to find the man who framed their parents. The resolute Falconer kids travel across the country by any means possible: horse, all-terrain vehicle, bus, and even though underage and unable to drive, a stolen SUV. There are plenty of hair-raising near-captures and ingenious escapes from the FBI agent who locked up their parents and a professional killer the kids call Hairless Joe. But the incredibly determined siblings won’t stop until they’ve proven their parents innocent.
