author Jack Higgins' Chance twins are back in action!

Rich and Jade Chance are once again on the run - but this time, trouble finds them while their father is away on his own mission. After a breathless chase through an amusement park, Jade is taken hostage by a man from Chance's past who is plotting a dastardly political coup in the Middle East with nuclear weapons as a threat. Worse still, the President of the United States is on his way to the region for a summit meeting. It will take all of the Chance family's wits and skills to find the bomb and defuse the threat - and time is running out.

Executed to perfection, this gripping adventure featuring two regular teens is a seamless addition to Higgins' masterful young adult series.
