Anthony Horowitz does it again with the Alex Rider book Eagle Strike. In 322 pages, Alex sees a contract killer, has a run on with an evil famous pop star, takes a trip on Air Force One, sees that contract killer die, and finds out that he is the son of a contract killer. After Alex's friend Sabina invites him to go on vacation with her, he gets tied up with Damian Cray, a mad pop star who ordered contract killer Yassen Gregorovich. Yassen was ordered to kill Sabina's father, a journalist working in a story about Cray. Cray, in truth, was launching Eagle Strike, a project to take over Air Force One and launch all of America's nuclear missiles and destroy the places where drugs come from. Alex stops Cray but then learns a horrible truth from a dying Yassen. His father was a contract killer, and even though it was terrible news, it leaves the reader wanting more. So, if you want more details you would have to read Eagle Strike by Anthony Horowitz.
