Reviews
A great read for teenagers looking for a fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat thriller.
The Bay Chronicle
Kiwi author Denis Martin has come up trumps with another thriller … Combining the fiction of mystery and action – guns and abductions – with real-life teen problems of bullying and relationship angst, this is a great choice.
Canvas Weekend Herald
This book should be enjoyed by teenage readers of both sexes.
