Having never kissed a girl, 16-year-old Niko has
a lot on his mind. But things get much worse when
returning home from school, he finds his dad being
tormented by criminals. They are trying to extract
valuable information about secret government testing
on the River Thames. With his own life now in danger,
Niko must make a decision...
Does he stick or does he twist?
He twists, and makes his escape helped by his friend,
Jacinta. Chased by the criminal gang, the teenagers
flee along the Thames in a battered old canoe
towards London. They try to unlock the mystery held
by the water by following a set of weird clues linking
old gravestones to pollution, death and even murder!
'Stick or Twist is a high-octane adventure, a race against time, an exciting mystery complete with danger, clues and murder. Brilliant!'
