This book, Sure Fire, is about two twins Jade and Rich who are fifteen years old. Their mother just died in a tragic car accident. After the funeral their father, John Chance, comes and takes them to live with him. Chance’s house was only made for one person. It has a bathroom, a living room with two chairs, a small TV, and a coffee table, one office and one bedroom. The twins are fifteen years old. Like any other teenagers they refuse to sleep in the same room together. Chance drinks alcohol, smokes, works and sleeps. He only has alcohol in his refrigerator and orders food in every night. The twins can’t stand it so they go to the store to buy food but they don’t have a lot of money. They can’t buy everything they need, just the necessities. Rich and Jade figure out that their father is going to send them to boarding school and so they really don’t like him.
At first, Rich and Jade really don’t know that something is up with Chance. One day, while Jade is on the phone she sees something he can’t explain- there is a man outside the window in a black van listening to every word she is saying. One day Chance gets kidnapped or actually, adult-napped! The twins are now stuck in the middle of this mystery and have to find their father. They do finally figure out what Chance was trying to tell them about his job. Jade and Rich had to grow up fast or else!
I liked this book because I am a big mystery, scary book person. When a book starts off really slowly I can’t stand it and I just stop reading it. This book had a lot of adventure by the second chapter. I think this book would make a pretty good movie!
