Snakehead

I chose to go back to the book s started with, Snakehead, written by Anthony Horowitz. I am at a very interesting part where Alex Rider, the teenage spy is sent into Bangkok as an Afghan refugee with his father. The ASIS plan to have a cover story where he and his father, Ash, who works for ASIS, try to get into Australia. They are getting help from the group called Snakehead, and this is their major business, people smuggling. The Snakehead gives them an address and a place they are supposed to live ion Bangkok until they are contacted. Later at the home, the Snakehead come and take Alex to their headquarters where he is supposed to get all of their paperwork that will help make them citizens. When he arrives at the headquarters he is told that he has to box another person and then he will get all the paperwork. He sees how tough the opponent is and realizes he has to cheat. He took a big sip of water and when he got close enough to the man he spit at him, the man was blinded, and then Alex knocked him out. Then the Snakeheads were very mad, shots were fired, and Alex was ready to leave. The main Snakehead at the headquarters was named Anan Sukit, he was aiming at Alex, and then the lights when off. This was when I stopped and I think it was a good time because it was at a huge climax in the story. It was just such a good place but I put the book down and waited to find out what happened later.
