A terrorist’s bomb killed her brother - is Laura the next target? Laura and Billy are all-American expat kids living in London with their parents. Charming eleven-year-old Billy wants to be an entrepreneur and is making a good start with his paper route and by selling American macaroni-and-cheese to his British friends. Pretty teenaged Laura is so boy-crazy she hopes her unique crush-ranking system will be attractive to college admissions boards. But their carefree lives change forever when Billy is handed a mysterious package in a London Underground station.

Just Who is the Real Terrorist?
Revisado: 07-21-16
It has been said that we cannot focus ourselves on destroying an evil person without becoming somewhat like them. When teenaged Laura's vibrant, life-loving brother, only eleven years old, is killed by a homemade bomb, deliberately given him by a stranger while leaving a London subway, Laura vows to revenge him. She sets out on a bitter mission that obsesses her and alienates her from her worried friends. Caroline Cooney is a gifted story teller who extends suspense to a painful and masterfully-handled length that keeps you turning pages. The characterizations are compelling and the novel has a message that reminds me of a Shakespearean one. Can anyone, like Hamlet, revenge herself on an evildoer without becoming somewhat like him? Is the price worth it?
