Angel Blood

by John Singleton

In this extraordinary book, the reader is catapulted into the world of the Bin where disabled children are hidden from the outside world. X-ray and his friends Lights Out, Cough Cough and Chicken Angel know they must get away from the menacing Dr. Dearly before really bad things start to happen.

 

When bad-boy Nail and his girlfriend Natalie stumble into the Bin one night, the children see an opportunity for escape and make a decision which could well kill them.

 

A totally unique and disturbing novel which raises uncomfortable moral and ethical questions, whilst provoking tears, anger and elation in the reader. The author's skill with language is stunning and makes this bizarre, brutal story so very human and believable.
