A new edition of Bernard Beckett's unconventional thriller for teenagers. Marko surfaces from a drug induced haze to find himself hidden from the world in a psychiatric ward. He is certain the 'Doctor' means to kill him, but he in turn has vengeful plans of his own. Who are these people and what happened to the others? Who can Marko trust and how much time does he have? Time enough to write it all down, his story of a coast to coast trip by his PE class, and the earthquake which ripped his world apart. A New Zealand thriller that gives you a jolt on the very first page.
