His life in foster care, always bad, is getting worse, and he's in trouble with the police. All the odds are against him finding a decent place in the world, but his efforts to free himself of the Beast make him a hero that readers will never forget. "I really love this book... BEAST should be a monster hit" Amanda Craig, THE TIMES "BEAST has a tension that never lets up. Ally Kennen is a remarkably assured writer" INDEPENDENT SHORTLISTED for the CILIP Carnegie Medal |
