RELEASE NOTES:
I loved this book. I bought it after seeing the author review it on BBC1's Pageturners and could not put it down.
The plot is a who dun it - but it is far more interested in why they dun it!
Apparently it is being made into a film, I'm not quite sure how that will work as Louis spends most of the book in a coma but I'm interested to find out.

Looks great thanks again! Will indeed post review when I read it..then set it free!! or at least pass it on!!

WEll, it took a while to get into this book, and yet I finished it quite quickly although I'm really not sure whether I enjoyed it or not...yet there was somehting compelling about it..
I found it all quite strange to be honest, and the ending was peculiar. That said, the style in which it was written was very interesting, and looking back, I suppose the plot was clever too...
Made me wonder if some of the children with whom I work have put themselves in the behaviour equivalent of Louis' Coma where they shut everyone out due to experiences...know what I mean?
Will probably release this at meeting!
