The book was fiction. It was about a Russian billionaire and a Englishman who tried to fix a football match.
I thought this was a really good book - it had lots of detail and lots of drama and at some points it had some great cliff hangers.
It was very mysterious
The book is an exciting fiction book with a boy called Danny. Danny likes football and he is also trying to get a summer job. When he was looking through the long list of jobs then he saw a job which he really liked. The job was a news reporter so he travelled around the would with a man who was a professional news reporter and went around the world commenting on all of the games. I would definitely recommend this book to people who like football and a spy type of book.
this was very exiting
This book was very exiting !!!!!
This is a really good book about detectives and football. It really grip you in and is a very exiting story. I would recommend this and all the other books in the series Tom palmar is a really great author.
I think that this book is ideal for people who like crime stories as the fast paced action will keep you on your toes. The suspense when Danny realises Sir Richard Gawthorpe is alive takes you and the intensity of the book to Cloud Nine.
NOT NICE!!!!!!!
Normally I don't like detective storys but I love this book and it has sport in it aswell 5/5
