The Road of the Dead
The Road of the Dead
Author: Kevin Brooks
Desc: On a storm-ravaged night a 19-year-old girl is kidnapped raped and killed. Three days later her two younger brothers set out in search of her murderer. Cole 17 is a dark-eyed devil who doesn't care if he lives or dies while Ruben 14 is a strange child who sometimes inexplicably experiences sensations above and beyond his own. This is the story of the boys' journey from their half-gypsy home on a London junk lot to the ghostly moors of Devon where they hope and fear to find the truth about their sister's death. It's a long road cold and hard and violent. It's THE ROAD OF THE DEAD.
