Synopsis

When the crops fail, Danny and his dad have no choice: it's starve or go hunting in the forbidden game park. But it will be OK, if they don't get caught. Then Danny makes a mistake that lands them in the clutches of corrupt game ranger, Davis Sata. Now they have to do something far worse than steal a little meat. Republished as a new edition, this book is one of the Shades 2.0 series. This book is perfect for reluctant teens who still want an exciting, unpatronising story that is relevant to their interests and concerns, but who don't want to read a longer novel. With a length of only 6,000 words, and filled with drama, this story will appeal to all reluctant teen readers.
