Synopsis

An airliner explodes over the Atlantic leaving 345 people dead. Crash investigators suspect terrorism, but they're getting nowhere.

A distressed twelve-year-old calls a police hotline and blames his father for the explosion. It could be a breakthrough, but there's no hard evidence and the boy has a history of violence and emotional problems.

Only CHERUB agents can unearth the truth. They're trained professionals with one essential advantage: adults never suspect that children are spying on them.

For official purposes, these children do not exist.

And now: a new cover look for this number one bestselling series!

CHERUB: THE SLEEPWALKER is read by Simon Scardifield.

About Robert Muchamore

ROBERT MUCHAMORE was born in Islington in 1972. As a teenager he dreamt of either becoming an architect, a photographer or a writer. On discovering that architects have to train for seven years and after quitting his Saturday job in a camera shop, he saved up enough money to buy a word processor and set his heart on writing. The only problem was, he didn't know what to write. So, he found a regular job and spent thirteen years as a private investigator. He was inspired to start writing again by his nephew's complaints about the lack of anything decent to read. Robert's CHERUB and Henderson's Boys series are bestsellers around the world. Robert grew up listening to mix tapes sent to him by his older brother, developing tastes for indie bands like Joy Division, The Pogues and The Smiths. The idea for Rock War came from seeing that many of Robert's fans turned up at book signings wearing the logos of long dead rock bands, and a realisation that his online fan forum had more kids talking about the X-Factor than about his books.

There really are very very few series out there at the moment that engage me and steal my time quite as much as Joseph Knox and the Aidan Waits novels- dark noir with a deep ironic humour running through the heart of them and a main protagonist who is the very definition of anti-hero.

The Sleepwalker is the third crime thriller in the DC Aidan Waits series, however, I feel that this is both Knox's most accomplished and most compulsive story to date. Each instalment can be read independently without issue but starting at the beginning is recommended. Troubled soul Detective Waits......more

Goodreads review by Nigel on July 03, 2019

In brief - Damn that was a good read. Perfect? Maybe not - however I would happily bring out an extra star for enjoyment. Next one please!! Waits and Sutty are off the nightshift for now. Their new task is quite simple. A man convicted of murder who Sutty arrested some years ago is terminally ill. He......more

Goodreads review by David on October 21, 2019

A great pacey read, just not quite as engaging or credible as the first two books of the series. 4.5 stars......more
