Critic Reviews
“A taunt thriller...Nunn is a teacher, and depicts teens well. But on the strength of this book he could easily write adult thrillers.”
The Age
Nunn has created a well-written, fast-paced and suspenseful story which, one hopes, will ring true with no child. The book will, doubtless, draw comparisons with Robert Cormier's The Chocolate War. Viewpoint
This multi-layered story has me hanging on to my seat...an engrossing read. Magpies
