Book review--Spy Girls
By Elizabeth Cage


This story is about 3 young teenaged girls, who are picked by the US government to be spies for them, and work in a secret organization only known as, the Tower. Their skills- Josephine Carreaes’s knowledge of foreign languages, Caylin Pike’s athletic prowess and Theresa Hearth’s skills in technology-were the reasons for the government choosing them. The first book is about their maiden mission for the Tower-infiltrating the US Embassy and finding an important list of the locations of several nuclear weapons before a group of terrorists reached them.

Their boss was a mysterious man only known as Uncle Sam. They have never even seen his face before. He gave them instructions on their mission, and that it was to take place in the US Embassy. He also told them to be careful, as another Tower agent, Agent Frank had died mysteriously on the job. He also told them to look out for the son of the boss of the US Embassy, Nicholas, as he was their main suspect.

Upon reaching, Josephine was disguised as a translator; Caylin a housekeeper; Theresa a phone operator. Using the safety of their fake identities, they all snooped around for clues. Their breakthrough came when Caylin found Agent Frank’s address book. They pored through it excitedly, but all that they could find was an entry simply titled”Green Disk”. This led them to suspect that perhaps, the list was hidden in a disk, which was probably in a place with reference to the color green.

After reporting the find to Uncle Sam, Caylin was instructed to bug Jonathan’s phones in the hope that they could find out what he was up to. They discovered he was finding the list of nuclear weapons in exchange for two million dollars, funded by a mysterious man called Alfred. Alfred also blackmailed Jonathan into a time limit, or he would kill his father. The spies were disgusted by that Jonathan had been willing to put his own father’s life on the line for a wad of money.

While spying, the girls unexpectedly run into a short-haired woman with a dangerous aura and scornful look. They suspected her to be working with Alfred and chased her through clubs, snapping her picture and trying to get information on her. Also, they discovered a man Josephine flirted with at work, Antonio, could also be in cahoots with Alfred and Jonathan when he sent Josephine chocolates in which powerful poison was found.

The girls decide to start hunting for the “Green Disk”. They sneaked into the boss’s personal CD room and went through every one of them. When Josephine was asked by her supervisor to choose some music for an upcoming ball, they looked through more CDs she was given, hoping to find it. On the last day they were allowed for the mission, the girls suddenly realized there were still several 30 odd CDs with Josephine’s supervisor. Upon opening the door of the CD room, they bumped into Antonio and Jonathan. Running away from them, they found the CDs in an office and find the CD they were looking for in a case titled, Green Day. However, their happiness and their success did not last.
Jonathan and Antonio chased them to the road, and all the way to the FBI safe house the spies were instructed to report to.

In the FBI safe house, FBI agents cuffed Jonathan and Antonio. Suddenly, the spies saw the mysterious dangerous-looking woman there too. They yelled for her to be cuffed too, but she showed a Tower identification card and identified herself as Danielle Hall, a fellow Tower agent. The spies were stunned when she said she had been assigned to tail them and literally be their guardian angel. They were in for another surprise when the Scotland Yard came forward and asked for Jonathan to be released. Jonathan then revealed he was working with the Scotland Yard to bring down the terrorists who killed his friend, Agent Frank.

Jonathan told them how he and Agent Frank had known about the list. Apparently, when his father had given him some CDs to use for schoolwork, one particular CD could not be erased and even destroyed his entire hard disk. Thus, he had sent it to Agent Frank, a friend he knew was a technology genius. Agent Frank realized the list was hidden inside and had copied it to the Green Day CD before he was murdered.

The girls were really surprised by the way things had turned out, but were giddy with happiness at their success with their maiden mission as Alfred was also caught by the spies.

This is indeed a thrilling but also mysterious story. I felt confused with the story when I just started reading the book as there were a lot of mysteries. But as I read on, I have started to love the story as the story gets more exciting and finally everything was solved. The mysterious part of the story prompts me to read on, as I want to know what had exactly happened. And finally, at the last few pages of the book, it turned out to be a happy ending when their mission came to a success. However, there are more books to be read on, where there are more missions and mysteries to be solved about nicholas and also the final ending of the collections of the book. I could not wait to finish them at once! :D
