It was published by Hodder Children's Books (ISBN 9780340956472) on 26 August 2010, and features the final mission of the long-standing central character James Adams.

At the wedding, he is reunited with several ex-CHERUB agents and former staff members, including Kyle Blueman, Norman Large, Dana Smith and Amy Collins.

Kyle tells James about how, when he was assisting in a CHERUB basic training course in Malaysia in 2004, he met a teenager named Aizat Rakyat who told him how Abdullah was demolishing native villages to make way for building luxury hotels.

In the aftermath of the Boxing Day tsunami, Abdullah evicts the inhabitants of Aizat's village to build more hotels on their land.

Together, they go and meet Helena Bayliss, runner of charity Guilt Trips, journalist Hugh Verhoeven, and former arms salesman Dion Frei, who are working to discredit Abdullah.
