Cherub #3

The CHERUB series brings its young undercover agents to the American Southwest for Mission 3: Arizona Max, with Muchamore, Payen, and Combet delivering a sun-baked desert thriller. The cover places three teenagers — two boys in matching red Arizona Max uniforms and lanyards, and a girl in a floral dress with sunglasses perched on her head — against a striking backdrop of mesa rock formations, saguaro cacti, and what appears to be a correctional facility. It's a confident, atmospheric image that captures the quiet tension of kids operating in a world far bigger and more dangerous than they let on.
