The Mind Game - an espionage mystery thriller for teens and young adults

By M G Harris and M.G. Harris

Book Overview

Years have passed since her childhood friend disappeared, but Roni remains consumed by the enigma. Can she uncover what happened to Maxim Santiago?

Podcast fame thrusts 17-year-old Roni into a perilous quest to find her missing friend, who disappeared from Dulles Airport, Washington D.C. She teams up with tech-savvy Kenzie to crack cryptic messages and unearth a dark secret about trafficked kids. Dodging shadowy agents of the ruthless Russian dictator waging a global 'Mind Game' on his enemies, they end up in a sweltering Mexican town, a nexus for refugees.

They shared childhood memories, but Maxim has changed. He's older, wiser, perhaps even dangerous. Now he seeks their help to rescue enslaved children guarding a world-shaking secret, but time's running out. Roni and Kenzie dive into Maxim's risky mission, testing their friendship amid a struggle for control of a key project that could win the Mind Game.

It's a journey that brings Roni an astonishing self-discovery. Can she trust in herself to help the rescue succeed?

From "sci-fi author M.G. Harris, creator of the best-selling Joshua Files" (Radio Times Magazine, 5th September 2013) comes a spy thriller for young adults set in a world of geopolitical conflicts that sits rather closely to our own post-pandemic world.
