I,Q Is a great, fun mystery/adventure book! It’s A-Amazing! I’d give it 5 STARS!!! It got me sitting on the edge of my seat, it was so exhilirating! The storyline was great, and you could TOTALLY relate to the characters!!! Q (short for Quest) is a smart, fun kind of guy, who can find a way out of any sticky situation, but can’t seem to be able to lie. Angela is a shy, quiet, and is a survival expert who can seem to endure the toughest outdoor scenarios, and want’s to be on the Secret Service (when she grows up)like her seemingly “dead” (real not step) mother, Malak Turner. But when a “roadie” named Tyronne Boone becomes their famous step-parents’ driver things start to change! Boone is really there to protect Angela from terrorists who are hungry for revenge of Malak Turner who apparently according to Boone has a 50/50 chance that she’s alive. How did that happen?? Will Angela be okay? Read the book and find out
