A spy who is 16 years old broke into US Air Force computers. In the future, warfare on the Internet could do as much harm as bombs and bullets.

Evaluation: 4stars
I am very interested in spies, so this book is interesting for me. I don't know the fact that spies were in ancient times. After I read this book, I got more and more interested in spies, but I never want to be spies because spies may be killed by enemies if caught. I wonder where spies are nowadays.
