Publisher's Synopsis

Following a spillage from a nuclear plant, people flee in terror, trying to avoid contamination. Fifteen-year-old Janna and her young brother Uli are caught up in the chaos with tragic results. Uli dies and Janna gets radiation sickness. Determined to fight back, Janna joins an anti-nuclear power protest group in the hope that no-one else will suffer from fall-out contamination.

About the Publisher

Puffin

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
