They Kill Bears is the first of a quartet of books featuring Tanith and Nicely, each of which is a complete story in itself, but with an underlying plot leading from book to book, that eventually unfolds the shocking truth behind ‘Tanith’s Secret’.

The book is written for young adult readers between the ages of 12 and 16, but with a complex, twisting plot, real locations (including one scene set in Luxembourg!), and a hint of darkness, that come together in a ‘can’t put down’ story that will appeal to adults as well.

So let fifteen year old karate kicking Tanith take you on a roller coaster ride of action and suspense, as she is made to leave her home, family and country by nameless forces that continue to watch her every move. And meet Tanith’s massive white dog Nicely, which stops enemies and traffic in equal numbers!

Synopsis
Book One in the Tanith's Secret quartet On a dark night, in the ancient European city of Luxembourg, a tragic accident results in fifteen-year-old Tanith losing her home and being wrongly labeled as a criminal. She seeks a new start in unfamiliar England, but trouble still follows her. Nevertheless, she has the skills she needs to survive. "You have a rare talent," a police karate instructor tells her. And Tanith can also sometimes see things that others cannot. Things from the past perhaps? They Kill Bears describes a real and dangerous world, where genuine martial arts skills and the ability to overcome fear, mean an exceptional girl who knows her limits (and walks with a giant white dog called Nicely, that stops traffic and enemies in equal numbers!) can even the odds. Professional dog fighters, police officers, soccer hooligans, sadistic school bullies, Japanese gangsters, and even the anonymous group that has been watching Tanith from the shadows since she left her home, discover this for themselves, as you can, when you visit the world of Tanith and Nicely in this, the first novel in a series of four that eventually unfold the shocking truth behind Tanith's 'Secret'.

"You're very brave, Tanith, but these are relentless men ...they'll come back, again and again." Tanith continued to look Derek right in the eye. --in a way that made the teacher rock back on his chair. "We met them before, Nicely and I. We will meet them again, whenever they like, wherever they like..." Tanith lowered her voice to a whisper. "Let them come."
