[edit] Plot summary
It centers around two major drug dealing gangs in the turf war surrounding the collapse of KMG (Keith Moore's Gang) ( See CHERUB: Class A ). Gabrielle O'Brien and Michael Hendry are sent to infiltrate the infamous 'Slasher Boys', led by a man who calls himself Major Dee. Later on Gabrielle is stabbed badly in the stomach and sent back to campus. Michael Hendry still stays. In the first part of the book it describes how James Adams and his new girlfriend Dana are helping on the last few days of Basic Training as instructors.
After Gabrielle O'Brien's serious injury the Ethics Committee was thinking of calling off the mission but they decided that they would wait and see. Norman Large tries to blackmail Lauren so he can be a teacher at CHERUB again. Kyle, James, Kerry, Lauren and Bruce play a trick on Mr Large's adopted daughter, Hayley Large-Brooks. They invite Hayley out for dinner and then James starts kissing her and touching her boobs for photos that Kyle takes. They blackmail Mr. Large with these but they get caught and punished, especially Lauren. Before James leaves for his next mission they have a leaving party for Kyle who is going on a Gap Year and later going to study Law at Cambridge. James Adams and his friend Bruce Norris are sent to infiltrate the group known as the Mad Dogs. James uses his past relationship with Junior Moore to make infiltrating the gang easier. He is soon accepted into the gang and given a major role. However, this annoys Junior, who Sasha Thompson is trying to protect. James has sex with Sasha Thompson's (The Mad Dogs leader)daughter Lois. Junior asks James to help him rob a shop, and James is forced to refuse and warn the police, so that Junior is arrested. During the book there are many violent encounters. The biggest is a massive storming of an airport where police arrest around 40 people. James Adams, Bruce Norris and Michael are sent back to Campus. In the end of the book James admits to his girlfriend Dana that he had sex with Lois. Dana is happy that he would admit such a thing and forgives him and makes James take a sexually transmitted disease test. The test returns negative.
