How Far Would You Go To Save Your Friends?

Melbourne 1942. As the World War II Pacific war rages, 16-year-old cadet reporter Murph and his cheeky Aboriginal friend Banjo are thrown headfirst into an explosive wartime conspiracy when their old nemesis is found dead on Christmas Eve.

All the evidence points to Banjo, who has disappeared without a trace. But Murph refuses to accept it, and-with the beautiful, enigmatic British spy Rose Atherton at his side-he dives deeper into a murky world of wealth and power.

Meanwhile, Banjo's sister Micki plans her daring escape from a POW camp in the Australian outback. But can she really trust her fellow inmates, and be reunited with her family and Murph? With dangerous forces closing in, Murph must decide whether to risk everything-his freedom, his job, even his life-to uncover the truth and save his friends.

The Deep Enders: Deadline is a race against time, with nothing but their wits, grit, and fireworks to unravel a deadly mystery that runs all the way to the top of the Allied war effort. This is the second book in The Deep Enders series.

Rezensionen
Praise for the Deep Enders series:

"The Deep Enders is about so much more than history. Every reader will find themselves in these pages. It is a brilliant historical adventure, offering an exciting new twist on a critical time in history."
-Jennifer A. Nielsen, #1 New York Times bestselling author

The Deep Enders is a multi-faceted story with so many different threads of history woven throughout, all brought together in full-bodied characters that you come to care for deeply. Dave Reardon has developed characters that make you think about them and the rest of their story long after you have finished the last chapter. It is a tale full of adventure, excitement, peril, friendship, laughter, and heartache all wrapped up in actual historical events."
-Tome Student Literacy Society

"Reardon humanizes the people of Broome during their worst moments. He focuses on the residents impacted by the brutality of war and the brutality of a town rooted in slavery. I highly recommend this book for ages twelve and up."
-Historical Novel Society

The Deep Enders will leave readers on the edge of their seats. This talented writer has the ability to create characters that one can identify with and situations that produce enough drama and tension to captivate readers and hold their interest to the very end. It's a great read, highly recommend."
-Buzz Words

"A gripping tale about friendship, family, and how the worst of times can still bring out the best in humanity. Reardon has a keen eye for adventure and bringing to life important moments in history."
-H.J. Nelson, author of The Last She series
