My talk is about the book: "Crazy Games" from Sandra Glover. First I want to tell you something about Sandra: She was born in Manchester in She trained as a teacher and was head of the History Department at a comprehensive school.

Now she is working on a creative writing project in four secondary schools. She is married and has 3 children. Now she lives in Cumbria. Crazy Games was published in Only this wasn't her whole life, just the worst part.

Her parents are away and her impromptu house-party has got completely out-of-hand. But when Hannah wakes up the next morning with her head throbbing and the house wrecked, she realises these are the least of her problems. From the fallout of the party emerges an accusation of rape that tears friends apart, divides opinion and shatters lives. Three girls, Cate, Jessica and Louise, have different personalities and are from opposite ends of Britain, yet have more in common than they can possibly imagine.

Could Louise's strange annual appointments with Dr Jay have something to do with it? Is what Jessica once saw at the Science Museum the key? Or perhaps Cate's own unusual family is the critical clue? As the secrets start to emerge and the puzzle unravels, the girls each have to face the devastating truth in their own unique ways.

Set in the near future this intriguing book explores the all too human results of a scientific experiment that confronts the deepest and darkest taboos.

They were just the kind of friends she needed. But with the onset of problems for one, and a controlling boyfriend influencing the other, Dee notices frightening parallels with her own troubles. Is she seeing things clearly, though? And will her efforts to help mean revealing family secrets? Secrets they so desperately want to keep hidden.

Debra's drink is spiked at a party, and she is abducted. In the race to find her, the police find plenty of suspects. There's her would-be boyfriend, and her sister's ex. And, as her parents are prominent in the community, there are plenty of people with grudges against the family. Fear and distrust taint every relationship. When at last she is returned to her family, Debra cannot identify her abductor, and her well-wishers realise that they must find and expose the person before any of them can begin to recover from the trauma.

Sandra Glover has written another gripping story of mystery and suspense that will keep her readers guessing until the very last page. She can write with enormous conviction and power about teenage life, weaving a story with such subtle shifts and sudden turnings that it is impossible to second guess. How would you cope if you committed a terrible crime as a youngster - not even a teenager - and were then released back into the community as a young adult, attempting to make a new life for yourself?
