The Lovereading4Kids comment
This is the fifth book in the explosive H.I.V.E series, which follows the exploits of teenagers who are being trained at the Higher Institute of Villainous Education as well as those who’ve made it into G.L.O.V.E, the Global League of Villainous Enterprises. Once again it hits the spot with a plot line that will have you on the edge of your seat in fear and trepidation. Assassinations, mysterious disappearances, a secret facility in the Amazon rainforest all combine to create tension more deadly than you can imagine but with lashings of humour too.

Synopsis
HIVE 5: Rogue by Mark Walden
The leaders of the world's villainous forces are being picked off one by one in a series of mysterious attacks and Dr Nero is forced to take temporary control of G.L.O.V.E. when Diabolus Darkdoom is seriously injured. He then discovers that Otto, who has now been missing for several months since Dreadnought, is leading the attacks. Under pressure from the remaining members of the ruling council, Nero is left with no choice but to issue a capture or kill order for Otto. Wing learns of the order and persuades Raven to allow him to join her on her mission to retrieve Otto. Other members of the ruling council, suspicious of Nero's relationship with the boy, have initiated their own missions to eliminate Otto. Wing and Raven find themselves in a deadly race against time to track Otto down before the other G.L.O.V.E. assassins get to him. Their pursuit takes them to a secret facility hidden deep within the Amazon rainforest, where they face a mysterious operative even deadlier than Raven. Meanwhile back at H.I.V.E., the school's own automated defence systems turn against the pupils and staff. And there is no one there to stop it.
