Inside My Head author returns with futuristic thriller
Author: Jim Carrington
Dystopian sci-fi meets Bourne Identity-esque intrigue and pacing in the fourth novel by writer and primary school teacher Jim Carrington. The story starts with the virtually nameless Boy 23 of the title being abducted from interior location that he’s known as home all his life, driven to a forest and left alone to fend for himself.
Moments before his kidnappers depart, an unseen voice instructs him to run for his life – which he does, but it’s not long before he’s asking questions.
Until now he’s never ventured outdoors, or even met another person – so who is he? Where is that apparently helpful voice coming from? And most pressingly, why is he being pursued by people seemingly intent on trying to kill him?
