Will must run, or die. He’s seen a murder, and the gang on his estate are after him.

Hurt, hungry and afraid, he comes to an abandoned house in a different part of the city. Behind its high fences is a place of safety.

But when Will meets Padma, he must choose between his good side and his bad one. For the gang he left behind is still there. How can he live without becoming a killer? How can he love without being a thief?

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The twists kept you wanting more. The story is relatable.The best bit for me, was when he finally stood up to the bad guys. I would recommend this book as a must read, i have read it twice already.
