SKELETON KEY (AN ALEX RIDER BOOK)

Hi. I just fell in love with a series that was my second best (percy Jackson series as #1). I could hardly put the books down!! This one is by far the best though and I want to tell you more about it!
The book is called Skeleton Key by Anthony Horwitz. The first book is about a kid named Alex. Alex was just a normal boy living with just a father when the father dies. He soon finds out that someone killed his father. He talks to a man and finds out his dad was a secret agent for Russia's "CIA". Now Alex is an agent and goes on many adventures. But thats the other books so why not head in to the one that stands out!
Alex was playing soccer when he noticed one of his agents walks by. Suddenly Alex is a ball boy at the Wimbleton! (a huge tennis tournament). When he is there he sees a mysterious man. He follows the man and suddenly the man is trying to kill him!! Alex manages to get away but not for long. When he came back to the agent he was told he had to go with some CIA members to a place called Skeleton Key.
Now Alex is on a boat near the shore of Skeleton Key. The CIA members have not came back from finding a tunnel. The CIA have been tracking a guy with nuclear weapons. Alex decides to go in. When he finds the cave he almost gets speared. Now he why the CIA men were not coming back. Now its just him alone. But even more disastrous..... he gets caught. Now he is living in a slave prison and there is no way to get out.
Will Alex ever find a way out. I guess you will have to read the book and find out.

p.s. there is a copy in the library. Also the other books are there.
