Don't miss this prequel to the multi award-winning SLATED trilogy by Teri Terry, queen of the teen thriller!

I'm just one girl. What can I do?

Sam's cosy life as daughter of the Deputy Prime Minister is about to end. These are turbulent times. Borders have closed and protests are turning violent. The government blames the country's youth, and is cracking down hard. Mobile phones are blocked, gatherings are banned, and dissent is brutally crushed.

Sam is torn between family loyalty and doing what is right. When she meets Ava and Lucas her mind is made up.

One girl, one choice. She can make a difference: she must. Even if her life—and her heart—are on the line ...

A red-hot thriller packed with secrets and revelations that shines a new light on the award-winning SLATED trilogy.

About the Author

Teri Terry's award-winning debut trilogy - Slated, Fractured and Shattered - established her as the queen of the teen thriller. Teri is also the author of Mind Games and Book of Lies, and her most recent work is the Dark Matter trilogy. Her books have been translated into sixteen languages and have won many prizes at home and abroad.

Teri Terry has lived in France, Canada, Australia and England at more addresses than she can count, acquiring four degrees, a selection of passports and an unusual name along the way. Past careers have included scientist, lawyer, optometrist and, in England, various jobs in schools, libraries and an audiobook charity. She has now made her home in the Buckinghamshire Chilterns (where the Slated trilogy is set) but Teri's love of travel continues, and research for her novels has recently taken her to Dartmoor (Book of Lies) and Shetland (Dark Matter).
