Synopsis
'Intensely readable, outrageously enjoyable action.' - Guardian
The tenth and final explosive episode in the latest sure-fire hit series from the bestselling author of Cherub.
Teen rebel and social-media star Robin Hood is in exile in Holland, limited to public campaigning for the rebel cause. In the meantime, the Sherwood Forest rebels have been waging a long bitter war against President Marjorie Kovacevic's troops. And hundreds of thousands of civilians, women and children, have been locked up in squalid open-air prisons. But if the President wants to remain in power, she must do whatever it takes to completely destroy the rebels in Sherwood Forest.
Robin gets a chance to rejoin the rebels and is smuggled in a hair-raising sea crossing to team up with his old band once more. His plan to destroy a military weapons factory turns into a plot to foment a popular uprising and stage a massive prison breakout. Soon a last-ditch effort to break the deadlock of never-ending fighting and oppression is gaining momentum like an out-of-control rollercoaster. The stakes could not be higher.
What ensues is the mother of all battles that reaches a cataclysmic finale in which the outcome remains on a knife edge until the very last page.
