The Road of the Dead

From Kevin Brooks a "thrilling gritty story" (Kirkus) that "grabs and holds readers attention from its very first chapter" (PW starred review) now in a dynamic new Kevin Brooks paperback look. On a storm-ravaged night a 19-year-old girl is kidnapped raped and killed. Three days later her two younger brothers set out in search of her murderer. Cole 17 is a dark-eyed devil who doesnt care if he lives or dies while Ruben 14 is a strange child who sometimes inexplicably experiences sensations above and beyond his own. This is the story of the boys journey from their half-gypsy home on a London junk lot to the ghostly moors of Devon where they hope and fear to find the truth about their sisters death. Its a long road cold and hard and violent. Its THE ROAD OF THE DEAD.
