Anthony Horowitz, Scorpia Review

Good Points
Not only an excellent book, but a brilliant "bad guy" scheme. Won't give too much away here, though.

Bad Points
Shocking twist at the end and a definite reminder that this will probably be the last in the series. Still, you never know...

General Comments
Anthony Horowitz, Scorpia - From last book, the assassin Yassen Gregorovich told Alex to go to Venice and to find Scorpia. This he does, only to meet up with a Scorpia executive who tries to recruit him. They tell him the truth about his father and they ask him to kill MI6 Operative Mrs. Jones. He fails, however, and is captured by MI6. They tell him about the horible project Scorpia are planning and ask him to try and find out more from the executive. Tried not to give too much away there. Horrible ending for Alex though.
