Out of Control

by Sarah Alderson

BLURB:

When 17-year old Liva witnesses a brutal murder she's taken into police custody for her own protection. But when bullets start flying, it becomes clear that Liva is not just a witness, she's a target.

Together with a car thief called Jay, Liva manages to escape the massacre - but now the two of them are alone in New York, trying to outrun two killers who will stop at nothing to find them.

When you live on the edge, there's a long way to fall.

EXCERPT:

‘Listen,’ he says, more softly now. ‘If you want my advice, stay away from the police.’

I take a deep breath in, though it’s like I’m breathing in water and not air. Every time I blink, the shooter appears on the back of my eyelids; the image of him scored there indelibly – his gun pointed at us, his face blank as a corpse, all except for his eyes, which were glittering and hard as ice. It wasn’t his eyes though that sent a chill through me. It was the uniform he was wearing; dark blue trousers, a lighter blue shirt, polished shoes, and the metal glint on the lapel which revealed who he was. A cop.

‘Are you OK?’

My eyes fly open. I realise that I’m shuddering violently, my shoulders heaving up and down as I try to suck air into my shrunken lungs. I’m vaguely aware of the boy’s hand resting on my shoulder, his voice sounding like he’s talking to me from the top of a mountain while I’m sitting on the bottom of the ocean.

‘Just try to breathe,’ he says. ‘It’s OK. It’s over.’

His hand draws tentative circles on my back as I try to do as he says and just breathe, in and out, before the darkness that is threatening to close in on me does. I focus on his voice, just his voice, soothing and low until I feel the darkness easing.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

Sarah is the author of Hunting Lila (winner of the Kingston Book Award), Losing Lila, Fated, The Sound, Out of Control and Conspiracy Girl (all Simon & Schuster).

Having spent most of her life in London, Sarah quit her job in the nonprofit sector in 2009 and took off on a round the world trip with her husband and daughter on a mission to find a new place to call home (a journey that was documented on this blog and which is shortly to be published as a book).

 After almost a year spent travelling the world, they settled in Bali where they lived for five beautiful years before the vagabonding urge became too great and they decided to embark on Can We Live Here part two. They are currently located somewhere between India, London, Canada and the US.

As well as writing young adult novels and screenplays, Sarah also writes adult fiction for Pan Macmillan (Simon & Schuster in the US) under the name Mila Gray.

Her first adult novel, Come Back To Me, was published in June 2014. The second, This One Moment, will be out in August 2015.
