Scott Tyler is not like other teenagers. With a single thought he can alter reality around him. And he can stop anyone else from doing the same. That’s why he’s so important to ARES, the secret government agency that regulates other kids like him: Shifters. They’ve sent him on a mission. To track down the enigmatic Frank Anderson. An ex-Shifter who runs a project for unusual kids – as if the ability to change your every decision wasn’t unusual enough. But Anderson and the kids have a dark secret. One that Scott is determined to discover. As his obsession with discovering the truth takes him further away from anyone he cares about, his grip on reality starts to weaken. Scott realises if he can’t control his choices, they’ll control him.

I was born in Dublin and moved to London when I was seven. I got my first typewriter when I was eight, had a poem I wrote about a snail published in a magazine when I was nine and that was it I was hooked on writing. Because I never thought I d actually be able to make a living as a writer, I decided I needed a trade to fall back on. So, naturally, I went to Sussex University to study philosophy. While my plan of being paid big bucks to think deep thoughts never quite worked out, I did land a job as a junior copywriter with an ad agency a week after graduating. I ve worked in advertising ever since, specialising in writing for videogames. When I m not writing ads for videogames featuring people being blown up, I write books for young adults featuring people being blown up. My greatest achievement was when Tom Baker (of Dr Who) flirted with me and told me a script I wrote was funny. He was being paid. I live in SW London with my husband, if we re not off travelling the world. When I m not writing I ve been known to fence and play guitar. Not at the same time. And both very badly.
