Walking the Knife's Edge
- eBook
Synopsis
Brock Heights is rundown, crap and Rarkin wants OUT. He’s a teen with a temper, a soft spot for his mum and lone wolf ways that could get him killed, courtesy of his abusive father.
But he’s got an escape plan: go to Sythe School, get qualified, work for Monster Containment and buy his own, safe home for himself, and his mum.
The problem is, PTSD and the constant stress of knowing dad could come home and start abusing anyone at any moment are impairing Rarkin’s studies. And his tendency to hold it in, to trust no one but the close-knit friends he hardly sees anymore, and try to do everything for himself; isn’t helping.
Worse, the danger and high stakes of on-the-job learning stir memories Rarkin has been repressing for years. If he doesn’t learn to make peace with his past and stop fighting EVERYTHING; he’s on the road to self destruction. In working for Sythe; Rarkin is Walking the Knife’s Edge.
