Keep Running

Margaret Storey
10-14 Middle/Secondary

Imogen Coleridge is kidnapped; but although confused and in some pain she has not lost her wits or her determination. An escape attempt nearly succeeds and Keen, her captor, has to find somewhere to keep her out of sight. As they go by car from hideout to hideout, Imogen's feelings about Keen, herself and her situation become complex and contradictory. A fast-moving thriller but with something extra for those (probably girls) beginning like Imogen to feel 'different from the person she always took herself for'.
