Crocodile Tears - Thryft

Action-packed teen spy thriller.

Crocodile Tears is a highly recommended read for fans of action and espionage. The story revolves around a teenager turned superspy, Alex Rider, and his mission to stop a con artist who uses genetically modified corn to produce a disaster that can knock out an entire country. The story is full of gunfire, explosions, and hand-to-hand combat with mercenaries, making it an exhilarating and addictive read. Anthony Horowitz's writing style, with its fast-paced action and detailed descriptions, keeps the reader engaged from start to finish.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

It's just another day in the life of an average kid. If you're Alex Rider, that is. A con artist has realized there is big money in charity: the bigger the disaster, the greater the money flow! So that is what he will produce: the biggest disaster known to man, all thanks to genetically modified corn that can release a virus so potent it can knock out an entire country in one windy day. But Alex Rider will face whatever it takes - gunfire, explosions, hand-to-hand combat with mercenaries - to bring down his most dangerous adversary yet.Often imitated, never equaled, the series that triggered a reading phenomenon is back, exhilarating and addictive as ever.
