Overview
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue:There was another knock on my door. I opened it.
Standing in the hallway was a very serious Secret Service agent.
"The President would like to see you both in the Oval Office," he said.
"Now?" I asked. It was 3 a.m.
He gave me a curt nod.
"Maybe we should change," I said.
"You're fine," the agent said. "He's waiting. Follow me."
Angela and I were going to meet the president of the United States in our pj's.
In Book One: Independence Hall, we met Q and his stepsister, Angela. We met their rocker parents, Blaze and Roger; we met the Secret Service team protecting the family; and we met the main players of the Mossad team that is following them.

Children's Literature
Q (short for Quest) and Angela, step-siblings aged thirteen and fifteen respectively, arrive at the White House at 2:00 a.m. on September 6 with their rock star parents. They are summoned to the Oval Office soon thereafter to confer with the President. Seems that they are a part of a secret anti-terrorist organization—of which their parents are unaware. Angela's biological mother is an undercover agent in a terrorist conspiracy and chapters from her viewpoint are interspersed with those written in first person by Q. Angela and Q are charged with discovering the moles within the White House staff and are thus exposing themselves to danger. The fast paced story is told in segments throughout the one day, ending at 9:16 p.m. This second book in the series seems to assume that readers are familiar with the first book and makes the assumption that they will continue to the third one. The story just stops in the middle of an episode with no conclusion or satisfying sense of closure. Reading this book on its own is like arriving late at the theater, seeing the second act of the play, and then leaving before the third act begins. Part of the "I.Q." series.
