Longstaffe has some important information and we need to make sure he, and the information, is safe. (p.10)


     Munro is working as a spy like Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible. He is given a critical mission which is to protect Longstaffe and some information. He is always rushing around on his mission in New Zealand. However, Longstaffe is killed by a man. Munro feels as if he missed some information because only Longstaffe knew what the information means. He starts seeking another hints for the information, being involved in some accidents. I like action movies which we can't guess the ending easily, but this book has a few more complicated problem. First, we lose the key man at the beginning of the chapters. Second, the author doesn't explain the information exactly. Therefore, readers don't know how much important the information it is. Third, Munro has few side since he is a spy. Mostly, a spy doesn't have the friends, so if you want to read this book smoothly, you should not think about his side or friend.


     This is Cambridge English Readers series. This book has few pictures and conversations, so we have to image the situation with the narration. Moreover, the main character goes to everywhere in New Zealand, so it's a bit difficult to do that as intended.
