Falcon's Malteser


by Anthony Horowitz

Reviewed by Brendon D. of Year 9

In an ordinary house in Fulham England lives Tim Diamond, the world’s worst private detective.

One day little Johnny Naples (thinking it will be well protected) entrusts Tim with a small box of Malteser’s. Little does he know that he is making the biggest mistake of his life. Later that day, Johnny is assassinated, Tim is blamed for the death and every criminal in their town is on the lookout for the ‘package’ that Tim’s wisecracking younger brother, Nick, now has.

But what is so special about this small ordinary box of Maltesers?

Anthony Horrowitz has written another suspenseful and gripping tale in The Falcon’s Malteser, a ‘spy-based’ book. There are many twists and turns ahead for the Diamond brothers as they try to solve the mystery of the Maltesers. This is the perfect story for anyone with a quick sense of humour (it contains many ‘funny’ jokes).


This book receives a 9/10 from me as it was extremely chaotic and it was hilarious to read about the Diamond Brothers and the sticky situations that they got into.
