Bibi feels out of place everywhere - everywhere that is, except for Tyme's End, the deserted house that she breaks into when she thinks nobody is nearby. There she unexpectedly meets Oliver Gardner, the owner of the house, who's just returned after ten years away. Their story and the story of Oliver's grandfather becomes inextricably entwined, linked as they are by Tyme's End itself. For Tyme's End is more than just a deserted house. It is a house that by turns can be romantic, beguiling, sinister and malevolent. It is a house that had a cruel and manipulative owner. And anybody who enters Tyme's End must prepare themselves for terror . . . Part mystery, part psychological thriller, set in the present yet with forays into the past, this is a cleverly ambitious novel that makes for a compulsive and gripping read. An ambitious and satisfyingly terrifying ghost story from the award-winning B.R. Collins B.R. (Bridget) Collins is a graduate of both university and drama school. Her first novel, The Traitor Game, was published to much acclaim. It won the Branford Boase Award in 2009 and was longlisted for the 2009 Carnegie Medal. A Trick of the Dark, Bridget's second novel, is just published. Bridget lives in Tunbridge Wells, Kent.
Joe and Ash are best friends. Ash is the leader, Joe the one who follows. Then one night after a party, Joe and Ash come a across a holdall, seemingly abandoned by the side of the road. They open it up . . . and find 20,000 in cash. Of course they're going to hand it straight to the police. Aren't they? Or is all that money just a bit too tempting? And that is precisely when the trouble starts . . . Jim Carrington has already established himself as a fine writer for teens with his debut novel, Inside My Head. With In the Bag, he shows how horribly easy it is for two teenage boys to make a car crash of their lives, through an unlucky combination of being in the wrong place at the wrong time and making a handful of wrong decisions.
