Traitor

Traitor by Andy McNab and Robert Rigby is a really good story.  I read it a while ago and really enjoyed it.  I would recommend it to anyone who likes to read adventure stories.

All Danny Watts wants to do is get a Regular Commissions Board scholarship, so he can go to a university, and then on to the Sandhurst Military Academy.  Things don’t go Danny’s way, though.  He gets denied the scholarship because the grandfather he’s never met, Fergus Watts, was a traitor to their country.  Angry, Danny decides to track down the man, with the assistance of his best friend Elena.  Everywhere they go no one’s heard from Fergus in years, or they’ve never heard of him at all. That doesn’t keep Danny from finding Fergus, though.  When Danny confronts his grandfather, the man’s grabs him and runs.  Quickly, Danny learns that he wasn’t the only person looking for his grandfather.  The other people want Fergus dead, and now they want Danny dead, too.  Danny’s grandfather says he innocent, and after a while Danny believes him.  Together, the pair of them tries to outsmart the people who are trying to kill them, and clear Fergus’s name.
