Like A Series of Unfortunate Events where one thing after another goes wrong. ( ) Young Reader Reaction: My daughter read this in 5th grade and pulled it from the shelf to read again in 7th grade. She loved the suspense and pace of the story. Adult Reader Reaction: A bit unrealistic, but a thrilling ride. Luke, Callie, and Theo are well-developed characters, though I have to admit I didn't like Callie much at first. The story left me curious to learn more about Camp David and the rules (are kittens really forbidden?). Wildfire Run is a book I'd recommend for readers who like action-packed stories. The author does an exceptional job helping the reader visualize events and scenes so that it plays out like a movie in your mind. Pros: Nonstop action keeps readers on the edge of their seat waiting. The story has lots of visual detail that can help readers who need or prefer being able to "see" the story as they read. Read our full review and add yours at The Reading Tub®.

Meanwhile, the Secret Service agents get word of a fast-moving forest fire. They must evacuate the camp immediately. They wait for a few minutes to see if Luke can call back his dog. When he doesn't appear, they jump into SUVs and head for the main gate. As they try to exit, catastrophe ensues. Following a car crash that leaves the extraction team separated and hurt, the three tweens need to figure out how to get away from Camp David.
