I just read this fantastic novel by Sonya Hartnett called Surrender. Firstly, WOW.
I suggest that you wander off down to you're local book store and pick it up, trust me, if you read the first page (like i did) you'll walk out the door with it, it really is that good.
This from the blurb on the back:
"As life slips away, Gabriel looks back over his brief twenty years that have been clouded by frustration and humiliation. A small town and distant parents ensure that he is never allowed to forget the horrific mistake he made as a child. He has only two friends - his dog Surrender, and the unruly wild boy Finnigan, with whom he made a boyhood pact.
When a series of arson attacks grips the town, Gabriel realises how unpredictable and dangerous Finnigan is. Events begin to spiral out of control, and it becomes clear that only the most extreme of measures will rid Gabriel of Finnigan for good."
I won’t tell you too much about it, because even the slightest hint may give it all away... However to read a fairly accurate review by someone who isn't me, go here.
