BAD BLOOD. BAD DRUGS. BAD BUGS. WELCOME TO THE FINGER.
A Splatterfest with a Social Conscience from radical new voice in teen fiction, Steve Tasane.
Meet Marshall O'Connor the First, troubled youf. He lives in The Finger, the scuzzie old tower block where they put the antisociable families. Nobody ain't listening, but he's got a story to tell.
So, people keep dying in The Finger. Authorities say it's dirty smack going round, but the bodies aren't all users, and they looked like they died screaming...
Then there's the bedbugs, all over the block; infestation – proper nasty, yeah? – they're driving Marshall crazy. True, he's got himself some anger-management issues, but sometimes you gotta fight for your turf. Cos it's not the drugs they should be worrying about: the bloodsucking bugs have grown some, and they're looking for a bigger feed...
