The Reluctant Assassin / Eoin Colfer / 341 pages

This new series (WARP) by the author of Artemis Fowl is nonstop action and adventure.  Chevron Savano is a 17 yr old FBI agent who is sent to England after an unfortunate incident in the US.  There she discovers the W.A.R.P. (Witness Anonymous Relocation Program) which sends witnesses to the past for their protection.  Riley is an orphan living in Victorian England who is apprenticed to Albert Garrick, a professional and deadly assassin.  Eventually Chevron and Riley both travel in time and save the day.  I listened to the Reluctant Assassin and the narrator, Maxwell Caulfield, does a great job.  This book would appeal to middle school readers.
