Clandestine (Paperback)

This book is a work of fiction, but built on a topic that is very real. Bullying has become a pandemic in the US that is growing rapidly. During my time in school I was a victim of bullying and I understand the the shame, the embarrassment, the loneliness and of course the Fear. The story tells the tale of James Anderson, an eighteen year old high school student who has been through his fair share of heartache. When James is eight years old he is involved in a tragic car accident that leaves his mother dead and him scarred for life. The young boy becomes disconnected from everyone, his father, his older sister and his best friend Felicity Evans. James and Felicity are close as two best friends can be, but the circumstances break them apart. James doesn't know how to be around others any longer and he creates a makeshift toy that he calls Clandestine. Clandestine is the one he unloads his emotions, his secrets his everything onto; which he does for the next eight years. In high school, James is known as a freak and a loser keeping to himself. Felicity has now moved on to a new group of friends becoming one of the popular crowd. James' biggest rival comes in the form of the school's quarterback, Russell Ford who makes it his daily mission to make James' life a living hell. After school one particular day, Russell and a few of his friends decide to give James the beating of his life, just because they feel like it; leaving him more downtrodden and alone than ever. James tells Clandestine everything, and out of anger, he wishes that something awful would happen to his assailants; and later that same night, one of them is brutally murdered in his home. Within a few days more of them are slain, leaving the town of Christina Bella, Arizona rocked. During all of this, James and Felicity find their way back to each other after the eight year gap. They start to realize that the time divided has made the heart grow fonder. Before the two of them can have anything together they must survive this horrifying ordeal that they have become trapped in by a dark figure that no one can seem to pin-point. James and Felicity must ban as one to stop this before they are once again separated from one another; this time . . . . by their deaths.
