When I grabbed this book to read over the summer, I didn't realize that it was the second in the series, the Shadow Project Adventure. Spy stories are usually not my genre, but I got hooked by page 37. There was even a period of time I had to put the book down due to nervous tension when one of the main characters was being
tortured by the KGB! Although the premise is pretty wild--black death is again sweeping the world due to some high-tech mess in the CIA, and the four Shadow Project teens are called upon to save humanity. All they have to do is use their special powers to travel back in time to the Cold War, find the American spy who mistakenly sent the disease to the future, and talk him out of doing it. Unfortunately, the America-hating U.S.S.R. is a very dangerous country back then and the teens are in big trouble before they can even find the spy they're assigned to contact. Good book. Have ordered the first in the series for us now.
