The Homelanders are attacking--and it's Charlie's last chance to stop them.

Charlie West has held on to that belief that he's not alone--but now he's starting to wonder. He went to bed one night an ordinary high-school kid. When he woke up, he was wanted for murder and hunted by a ruthless band of terrorists. He's been on the run ever since. Now he's stuck in prison, abandoned by his allies, trying desperately to stay a step ahead of vicious prison gangs and brutal guards.

A flash of returning memory tells him another terrorist strike is coming--and soon. A million people will die unless he does something. But what?

Fast-Paced from Beginning to End

Wow! Charlie West sure knows how to get into and out of trouble! This was a great conclusion to the Homelanders series. I really enjoyed the fast-paced action and incredible stunts that this teenage boy can do. I still think this would make a great action series or movie for teens. The saying, “You never know how good you have it until you don’t” definitely applies to this series. Teens and adults go through day to day life and get bored, annoyed, upset, etc. And until we are suddenly taken out of our comfort zone, we don’t know how much we truly appreciated our life. I like the message that is conveyed throughout; God, faith, home, family, friends, country, love, forgiveness…I think there’s a lot of good to get out of this series along with the terrific action!

So sad to see the chucklehead go, but the series is over. What a book!

This is a good book for preteens and adults. An easy read. There’s no swearing or adult situations. If you want your kids to read a book full of action, excitement, and God-fearing America-loving values then this series is for you.
