Product Description
Everyone assumes the bomb that killed Callie Rose's grandmother was the work of a nought terrorist. But Callie Rose knows the truth - and her fear of the past leaves her afraid for her future. Her boyfriend Tobey is worried about his own future. A nought boy at an exclusive school Tobey hopes to keep out of trouble, go to university, get a good job and leave the dangerous streets of his childhood behind. But Tobey is discovering that he can't keep clinging to some kind of no-man's land while the neighbourhood around him is carved up by rival gangs. Then he is offered the chance to earn some ready money just making a few 'deliveries'. He doesn't want a part of that world, the world of gangs. But maybe he could get away with it, just this once ...He little realizes how his decision will bring violence down on both himself and Callie and just how far he will go in fighting back...
From the Inside Flap
Just this once... Please let me get away with it just this once . . .
A bomb blast in a hotel has killed Callie Rose’s grandmother – and everyone assumes a nought terrorist was to blame. For noughts are still using extreme violence in their fight for equality with the darker-skinned Crosses.
But Callie Rose knows the truth – knows who really made that bomb. And as the guilt tears her apart, a fear of the past leaves her afraid for her future.
Her boyfriend Tobey is struggling with his own demons. A nought boy at an exclusive school, Tobey is discovering that he can’t keep clinging to some kind of no-man’s land while the streets around him are carved up by rival gangs. Offered the chance through a mate to earn some ready money – just for making a few ‘deliveries’ – Tobey knows he faces a crossroads in his life.
He doesn’t want a part of that world. But – just once – would it hurt to say ‘yes’ ...?
He little realizes how that one small decision can bring the violence down on both himself and Callie . . .
Explosively page-turning, dramatic and full of relevance for our world today, Double Cross is Malorie Blackman’s fourth novel in the award-winning Noughts & Crosses sequence.
