Nightshade by Anthony Horowitz. Alex Rider series #12. 368 p. Philomel Books/ Penguin Random House, April 7, 2020 9780593115312.

Publisher synopsis:Follow the world’s greatest teen spy as he sets off to Gibraltar after the death of Scorpia, and enters into a battle against a new criminal organization: Nightshade.

Following the shocking events of Never Say Die, Alex Rider’s world has changed–his biggest enemy, the evil organization Scorpia, has been destroyed. But a new and dangerous criminal organization–Nightshade–is rising, and Alex will stop at nothing to take them down.


This year, I had a seventh grader read all the Alex Rider books in a row. When he came it to trade book ten for book eleven, he asked about book twelve and got very upset to hear that he needed to wait until April for it! This series is quite popular in my school.
