This book is a complete thrill ride - perfect for kids who like a lot of rip-roaring action in a book they can't put down.

When Cassie's father picks her up in a panic after school one day, she learns that there is an ancient group called the Hastati that wants her dead. Cassie is part of an ancient bloodline that allows her to control the Spear of Destiny and alter the course of human history. Before she knows it, Cassie's father has been shot and she's on her own to figure this out - with the help of a few friends.

There are lots of twists and turns to the plot and the nonstop action really keeps the pages turning. Hand this to kids who are looking for something exciting to read. And of course it ends on a total cliffhanger, so be sure to have the second book, Return Fire, close by!
