Scorpia has dogged Alex Rider for most of his life.
They killed his parents, they did their best to con Alex into turning traitor, and they just keep coming back with more power.
Now the world's most dangerous terrorist organization is playing with fire in the world's most combustible land: the Middle East. No one knows Scorpia like Alex. And no one knows how best to get to Alex like Scorpia.
Until now, the chases have never been more intense, the fights more treacherous, or the risks so perilous to mankind.
And this time, Alex won't get away.

Alex has grown up a little and the series has grown with him. The entire book had a very dark feel to it, reminiscent of book five: Scorpia. The action scenes are really gritty as usual, and there is a bit of coarse language splattered in. Alex has to face real evil, far worse than many of the other villains of the past.
