Alex finds him self in the land of Australia on holiday and is sucked into another mission but this time for ASIS, the Australian Secret Service. He is told his godfather Ash will be there and they will be disguised as father and son. They must look like Afghan refugees and Alex must act poor and he would not have been to school so he can not talk and he has to act stupid and careless. He is meant to be just like a prop for Ash and he is not meant to do anything. Alex ventures into South Asia, the world of Snakehead, the illegal organisation. They transport refugees from country to country on a shipping boat that is meant to ship toys and other products, but the container actually contains refugees who want to start a new life in Australia.
Alex is taken from Ash by a man who is suspicious that Alex is not an Afghan refugee. He is taken to a boxing match were he is to fight the champion and Alex actually cheats and beats him. There is a power cut and Alex escapes only to be shot at and after all that he survives. Ash gets the visa and passport that they need to get to Australia again. Ash goes out looking for info and Alex is told to go home and stay there until Ash comes back. Instead Alex decides to follow the fat guy who has been following Alex everywhere from the airport to the wrestling match. Alex then discovers that MI6 have followed Alex to Bangkok and have been keeping him safe. Alex gets tools from his favourite person Smither,s the jolly fat MI6 agent. He is given a pack of gum with exploding coins concealed in the wrapper, a belt with a knife and a lot of other small useful things, as well as a watch with a tracking system. He does not know it, but his trainers have a tracking device in them and they are battery powered. Faced with an old enemy and troubled by the his past, Alex has no one to trust and nowhere to go. He is stuck in a container and a two day journey to Darwin, Australia. He decides to escape and the coin helps him break free. His real troubles arise when he calls his godfather and he is tricked by Yu Winston, the man behind everything. Alex is flown to the middle of the jungle and he has no idea were he is until Yu explains everything to him. Alex is to die slowly and painfully. First his eyes are to be removed and sold to hospitalls who need eyes, then his fingers and toes are to be sold as well, his ears also, next his kidneys. He will still be alive at this stage, then his elbows and knees, soon after his lungs, brain, heart, spine and ribs. He will be killed painfully and slowly. They will keep him alive as long as possible. His blood will sell for a million a litre so they are really going to make some money.
I highly recommend this book for people who like adventure.
