Title: Dawn Undercover
Author: Anna Dale
My Rating: 3/5
Part of a series? No
Genre(s): Children, Spy, Mystery.
Description/Blurb:
Dawn Buckle spends most of her days trying to get people to notice her, but whether at home or at school, it's as if she's invisible. And that's exactly what makes her the ideal recruit for S.H.H. (Strictly Hush Hush)--a secret intelligence agency. How the world's most forgettable girl transform herself into a world-class spy (and brings in a surprising double agent) makes for a rollicking read.
My review:
My mother got me a copy of this when I was younger because of me going through a bit of a spy phase (still love James Bond films now) and I was hooked. I think I read the book in a weekend and spent the next couple of weeks making up secret codes with my friends. Though looking back this is more a mystery than a spy novel I found it gripping and despite the main character being female the book wasn't girly so I would happily recommend it to any child/young adult who is interested in mysteries.
