![]() ![]() ![]() On a historical note, the road of the dead was a passageway, funeral processions walked along to arrive to the final resting place of the body many years ago.ĪREAS FOR TEACHING: imagery, author’s purpose, sequence of events, cause and effect The review on the back of the book mentions “brutal, vivid violence” – I totally concur. ![]() I found the book to be a little shallow and unrealistic – 2 boys taking on an entire town – what are the chances? The fact that the girl has been raped and murdered is a little dark (not something the teenage mind always needs more of). REVIEW: Typical Kevin Brooks book – edgy, violent, dark, foul mouthed, violent… To some teens though – this might be interesting. Their only goal is to take Rachel’s body home for a proper burial. ![]() Trapped in a web of deceit and surrounded by people who want to silence them permanently, Cole and Ruben must fight their way out. Before long, they are themselves victims of violence. He and his older brother Cole set out on to avenge her death and find out who killed her. The next day, his family finds out that Rachel was murdered. One night he senses that his sister Rachel is in pain and is gripped by fear. He can sense what others are thinking or feeling even when they’re not near him. PLOT SUMMARY: Ruben has always been different. ![]()
