Alias
Alias: Disappeared
Lynn Mason Lucy For ages 13 and up. In Disappeared, college student and amateur spy for the CIA, Sydney Bristow, is on her second mission, on which she has to pretend to be a dangerous arms dealer. She goes to Scotland and stay at a haunted old castle with other arms dealers, and she is all on her own, unlike in the first book. This is Sydney needs to use all her spy training to survive. Although I like the story, this book is not as good as Alias: A Secret Life. The castle is described very well, but the rest of the scenery and characters are sketchy. But this book has enough action and excitement to keep me reading so I give this book a 3 out of 4. Alias: A Secret Life by Laura Peyton Roberts Lucy A Secret Life, is based on the tv show, Alias. In this book, the main character, Sydney Bristow, is a college student who also happens to be a spy for the CIA. She gets sent to Paris to pose as a rich wife of an internet millionaire so she can find out if a clothing designer is laundering money is actually corrupt. This is Sydney's first assignment, so she is nervous at first. She gets into the assignment well when she finds out that Noah Hicks, an agent she likes, is posing as her husband. I gave this book a 4 out of 4 because it kept my interest the entire time. I like how the author described Paris in detail and how I can relate to Sydney, even though she is a spy. This book is well-written and the action is great. I especially like knowing how a spy works. This is a fun book to read!
