Book description
Jake's mobile is going wrong. It's sending weird texts to his friends.
Then they start appearing on his phone - from himself. Then the voice
messages begin. A girl is trapped in a storm drain, begging him for
help. But the messages delete as soon as he hears them. Finally he gets
a live call from her, and he knows he has to track her down. Will it be
too late for the girl - or for Jake? Highly readable, exciting books
that take the struggle out of reading, the Wired and Wired Up series
encourage and support reading practice by providing gripping,
age-appropriate stories at a manageable length and reading level.
Robert Dodds was born in England and grew up in Yorkshire and Kent with
a neurotic dog and a tortoise. He went to Oxford University to study
English and then became a teacher. After a few years working in England,
Mexico, and the USA, he settled in Edinburgh. By this time he was a
filmmaker as well as a teacher, and he set up a new degree course in
film and television production at Edinburgh College of Art in the late
1980s. He still works at Edinburgh College of Art for part of the year.
As well as producing a variety of work for television, radio, and
theatre, Robert has had four books published. This is his first title
for A & C Black.
