The Book of the Year: Older Readers – 2018 – ShortlistedIf you like sci-fi and crime novels then this book by Cally Black is just the the book you are looking for. It follows a 15-year-old stowaway as she is caught in a war between humanity and a brutal alien race of 'crowpeople'. The latest winner of the Ampersand Prize is a genre-smashing hostage drama about 14-year-old Tamara, who's faced with an impossible choice when she falls for her kidnappers.
Yet this is no ordinary kidnapping. Tamara has been living on a star freighter in deep space, and her kidnappers are terrifying Crowpeople – the only aliens humanity has ever encountered. No-one has ever survived a Crowpeople attack, until now – and Tamara must use everything she has just to stay alive.
