The Children by Charles Robertson

Front cover of The Children

THE CHILDREN

You might meet them anywhere. In the subway. On a plane. In your bedroom. So innocent in their blue schoolboy blazers. So angelic with their bright faces.

THE CHILDREN

Do not be deceived. They are the sons of wealth and power. And behind their shining eyes lurk cold, murderous hearts.

THE CHILDREN

They are the weapons in a secret army. They might be anywhere from New York to Houston to Switzerland. They are waiting. For you.

THE CHILDREN

Mark Chandler, tough reporter. Shelley James, top TV anchorwoman. Media stars, competitors, lovers. They have stumbled on the hottest, most dangerous story of this year or any year. They are the only two people on earth who can stop...
