Jimmy Coates: Target

Jimmy Coates: Target

by JoeCraig (Author)

Synopsis

Jimmy's back in the electrifying sequel to Jimmy Coates: Killer. Stand back for this new high-speed adventure, packed with surprises, danger and escape against the odds.

Jimmy's fingers were slipping. Smeared with blood, he had hardly any grip. He had to hold on. Mitchell chopped his hand down hard into Jimmy's shoulder, cutting off the nerves to his fingers. Staring up into Mitchell's ice-cold eyes, Jimmy fell into the shredder.

Jimmy Coates is still on the run - and this time NJ7 are pulling no punches. They're out for blood, and even though Jimmy has gone into hiding in France, they still track him down.

Jimmy might think that life could hold no further surprises for him - but he's very, very wrong.

Media Reviews

Praise for Jimmy Coates: Revenge

Boys love this stuff, and so do girls. Jimmy is a pint-sized verision of Robocop or Terminator... Like Anthony Horowitz's splendid fantasies, [these novels] tap into almost everything a bolshy boy wants and feels. Immensely clever, immediately engaging, they will prepare a child for Orwell and Huxley. Amanda Craig, The Times

Fast-paced and intelligently written. The Bookseller

the sort of book to wow reluctant boy readers away from computer games and into the pages of a book. Books for Keeps

Praise for Jimmy Coates: Target

With cinematic skill, Craig unrolls a series of action-packed scenes, with a new crisis at every turn of the page. It's gripping, but not mindless Angela Kilverstein

Praise for Jimmy Coates: Killer

...a totally excellent adventure - a lit bit Bond, a lit bit Matrix and a lot of what you've never read before. Someone make this into a movie! Flipside

A gripping action-thriller that's packed with twists. Funday Times

The perfect primer to the Bourne series by Robert Ludlum. VOYA
