About The Author

ROBERT SWINDELLS left school at fifteen to work on a local newspaper. At seventeen, he joined the RAF for three years, then trained and worked as a teacher. He went on to become the author of a number of bestselling titles for the Random House children's list, and in 1994 he won the Carnegie Medal for STONE COLD.

It's beautifully-written, short and to the point, with sparkling, pithy dialogue and a tense plot . . . Although this story engages with serious and frightening themes, it's also incredibly uplifting
