About this listen

 When Seb is offered a place on a radical retreat designed to solve the national crisis of teenage unhappiness, he is determined to change how people see him and make his parents proud. But as he finds himself drawn to the enigmatic Finn, Seb starts to question the true nature of the challenges they must undergo. The deeper into the programme the boys get, the more disturbing the assessments become, until it’s clear there may be no escape …©2023 Josh Silver (P)2023 Bolinda Publishing Mysteries & Detectives Mystery, Thriller & Suspense Mystery Fiction

If you like heart stopper and the hunger games you’ll love this book and my favourite character is and will always be Finn and if you like this i recommend they both dye at the end which is about thes to boys who meet because that day they will both dye but that doesn’t stop them finding love in each other

An amazing story of love and action

I listened to this book as part of my Radio Show 'Read To Me' available on Mixcloud, It was a series of shows exploring books about teenagers and tech and mental health. I had no expectations of this book, It just came up when I searched for teenagers and tech.
It was a phenomenal listen, Huw Parmenter is now up there with my top narrators, he embodies these character so wonderfully you are completely and utterly immersed in the story. The story itself is great and really highlights how venerable teenagers are, The ultimate reason that these teenagers have been essentially kidnapped (albeit with the parents consent) is a little weak, but all the characters are so good it really doesn't matter. Maybe this will strengthen in book two which I can't wait to listen to.
Very much recommend!

Absolutely Brilliant!

A truly engaging and thought-provoking book. Both laugh-out-loud funny and gut-wrenching. Best narrator I've heard in a long time too.

Fantastic Book!
