Chasing the Falconers (Reviewed by S.L.)


Chasing the Falconers by Gordon Korman is about two kids named Aidan and Meg Falconer. Aidan and Meg’s parents were recruited to work for the CIA by their friend Frank Lindanaur, who also worked for the CIA. Then, they are accused of being spies and passing classified information to terrorists.
After their parents are sentenced to a lifetime in prison, Aidan and Meg are placed at Sunnydale, a juvenile correction farm in Nebraska. After they escape Sunnydale, they try to prove their parents’ innocent while on the run from the FBI.
This book is a mystery narrative, aimed at kids who like mysteries. I loved Chasing the Falconers because it is an interesting book that makes me think. it is interesting because of all the clever ways the Falconers manage to stay hidden, like when Aidan has to get Meg out of the custody of the police, he dresses up like a policeman so people will not recognize him. However once you read it, you will have to read the other books in the series. I definitely recommend Chasing the Falconers.
