Thirteen

Born at midnight in London, on the stroke of the new millennium, Adam is the target of a cult that believes boys born on this date must die before the end of their thirteenth year.

Twelve boys have been killed so far. Coron, the crazy cult leader, will stop at nothing to bring in his new kingdom. And now he is planning a bombing spectacular across London to celebrate the sacrifice of his final victim: Adam.

Thirteen is the first in an exciting action series from bestselling author Tom Hoyle. Tom Hoyle is the headmaster of a North London boys' school. Thirteen is his first book, and the start of a series. He says "I wanted every chapter to be dramatic and engaging, the literary equivalent of a modern action film, something that even the most reluctant readers in my English class would want to pick up." A gripping thriller about a boy targeted by a murderous cult leader.
