About this ebook

When his dad’s book turns out to contain deadly secrets, twelve-year-old Furious Jones is thrust into a web of mystery and danger in this gripping page-turner.

Furious Jones, the twelve-year-old son of a famous thriller writer, lives with his grandfather after his mother was mysteriously gunned down right in front of him a year ago. Curious to know more about his estranged dad, he goes to see him speak about his upcoming novel to a packed audience—and to his shock and horror, he witnesses his father get shot as well.

When Furious discovers that his dad’s upcoming novel contains dangerous and fiercely protected secrets, he sets out to discover who killed his father, and what exactly they were trying to cover up.

Ideal for fans of Alex Rider and Theodore Boone, the action-packed exploits of Furious Jones are as thrilling as they are intriguing. Can Furious unravel this literary mystery before the death toll rises?

    Furious Jones and the Assassin's Secret by Tim Kehoe is a thriller.Furious learns his father will be in New York, and Furious hasn't seen him in seven months. Seven months ago his mother was murdered; Furious was sent to live with his grandfather to keep him safe. Sneaking into NYC, Furious meets the Attorney General who gets him into the ticket-only event to see his father. His father is clearly upset to see him. While walking out, Furious hears gunshots. Turning, he sees his father fall to the floor, dead. Furious runs back to his grandfather who realizes that life has become very dangerous. Furious is the only one left. When attacked, Grandpa is killed and Furious takes off.Furious takes a bus and heads west to find the truth about his family's deaths. Although he says that he knows he's in danger, you really don't feel the danger. He's not terribly smart, but he is a really good fighter. He can stand up for himself, which allows him to survive long enough to do what he needs to do.If you like Boy Nobody or if Boy Noboey a little too violent for you, you'll like this simpler story. It's a pretty good page-turner.
