Synopsis:
The border's closed, Jake said. No one can get into Scotland, just like no one can cross the Channel...This is England and it's no longer a free country. The Government can track anyone, anywhere, from a chip implanted at birth. But Jake has escaped from his Academy orphanage, and he's got to get to Scotland with his dog, Jet. When the Outwalkers gang grabs him, they go off-grid while the Government hunts for them. The closer they get to Scotland, the more dangerous it is. Because now, it's not only their own lives that are at stake . . .
Review:
Overall I did like this book but there were a few niggles I had which stopped me from really falling in love with it. Some of the characters behaviour frustrated me and at times things were a little too convenient. The plot was good and it kept me reading, I wanted to know what was going to happen. It was well written but I found the lack of speechmarks confusing a lot of the time.
