Read an Excerpt:
The weather in Liverpool was absolutely wonderful: wall to wall sunshine, and a refreshing breeze. Feeling the unwanted start of a suntan, Bodie walked onto a supermarket car-park, moving towards the entrance doors, while trying to look as nonchalant as possible. He watched shoppers coming and going with their trolleys. He saw one lady loading the boot of her Audi A3, and veered off towards her. The instant that he saw the keys in the ignition, he was in to the driver’s seat and driving the car away, leaving the woman screaming and running futilely after him. Bodie drove out of the car-park, but the tail-gate was still up and it smashed into the height restriction barrier with a massive crash and a shattering of glass.
‘Dammit!’

DeleteThank you for hosting this book
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome!
DeleteWell, that's a scary look down.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's an actual scene from the book where Brodie had to escape by climbing down a tower crane.
DeleteSounds like an exciting book.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking for GB Hope: Yes, it's exciting, but not too scary (we hope) for a YA thriller - that is, not too much blood and gore. Although the idea of a government conspiracy is scary enough for most people.
DeleteHappy Friday! Thanks for sharing the great post :)
