The Knife That Killed Me - Softcover
Paul Vanderman could be at any normal high school where bullies, girls, and annoying teachers are just part of life. But "normal" doesn't apply when it comes to the school's biggest bully, Roth--a twisted and threatening thug with an evil agenda. When Paul ends up delivering a message from Roth to the leader of a gang at a nearby school, it fuels a rivalry with immediate consequences. Paul attempts to distance himself from the feud, but somehow Roth keeps finding reasons for him to stick around. Then one day Roth hands him a knife. And even though Paul is scared, he has never felt so powerful.

Review:
Exploring knife crime and unwritten codes of conduct among young people, it disturbs with its immersion in violence, drugs and self-harm. This fast-paced topical novel stands out. We are embroiled in the twisted doings of a school bully. The nightmarish tension throughout makes it not for the squeamish. McGowan does not let us down lightly and ends the book with a twist that will leave even teenage boys gasping.
Book Description:
A stunning and contemporary new teenage novel from award-winning Anthony McGowan, winner of the Booktrust Teenage Prize.
