Pull

Autor Anne Riley
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 feb 2016 – vârsta până la 18 ani
Rosie Clayton witnesses a mugging on her first night in London - and then the scene rewinds itself. She finds herself standing in the same place again, with the mugging happening just like before, except this time a stranger steps in and stops it. There's no way the same incident can have two outcomes. Rosie thinks shes losing her mind, until a few days later, the stranger saves her. The stranger, Albert, and his band of misfit crime-fighters, have the special ability to Pull, which allows them to rewind just enough time to undo a recent event. Someone is hunting Albert and his crew - and now that Rosie's been seen with them, she's a target too. As Rosie learns more about this unbelievable ability and the people who want them dead, she discovers that their desire for her blood might be more than mere coincidence. Each step into this magical side of London introduces Rosie to a family history that she never knew existed, and dangerous forces that could unravel her world in an instant. Her family may be the reason they're all being hunted - and she may be the only one who can figure out how to save them. Being able to Pull is an incredible ability, but you have to be alive to do it.

Descriere

Rosie Clayton witnesses a mugging on her first night in London and then the scene rewinds itself. She finds herself standing in the same place again, with the mugging happening just like before, except this time a stranger steps in and stops it. The stranger, Albert, and his band of misfit crime-fighters, have a special ability, which allows them to rewind just enough time to undo a recent event. Someone is hunting Albert and his crew and now that Rosie s been seen with them, she s a target too. Each step into this magical side of London introduces Rosie to a family legacy that she never knew existed, and dangerous forces that could unravel her home in an instant. Reminiscent of Cassie Clare s "Infernal Devices, "Anne Riley s portrayal of contemporary London will envelop readers in a mystic haze as "Pull" s dynamic cast of characters fills the pages with energy. History is rarely confined to the past the key is learning to use it before it can haunt you."
