The Highest Form of Killing

Three young people begin to investigate the mysterious circumstances surrounding a series of deaths at the Ministry of Defense. “The novel, set in England, moves quickly; the characters are developed fully; and the theme of chemical and biological warfare offers interesting subject matter for individual or group response. Rose captures the structure of the mystery well, builds strong emotional ties among the three primary characters, and provides a compelling theme for young adult readers.”-English Journal
