Someone Saved My Life Tonight (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780593323243)

The lives of three teens spiral out of control in the aftermath of a suicide bombing at a concert. Perfect for fans of Marieke Nijkamp.

A bomb had gone off. At least that's what Olive thinks happened. Someone had yelled Run, so she did. Now, she was on the floor in the lobby. She doesn't know how long she'd been unconscious. She was bleeding. Her whole left arm looked alien to her. She was supposed to meet Felix in the lobby under the banner where bodies now lay. He had gone ahead to get her a souvenir she didn't even want. Where was he? She screamed his name across the lobby, but no one answered. The air boiled with smoke and smelled of burnt skin. Where was Felix? Olive had known him her whole life. They'd only just shared their very first kiss. She couldn't lose him now. She screamed his name again, Felix!

Felix would do anything for Olive, including seeing one of her favorite performers live in concert, even if he only knew one of the songs. He'd been waiting for Olive to love him as more than a friend since the day they met as toddlers. And when their world explodes, he'll risk everything to make it back to her.

Jeremy was supposed to be at the concert with his girlfriend Alma, but they broke up on their way there. He doesn't know why he still went. He gets up to leave just before the last song, but pauses to listen to the last lyrics in the lobby, knowing if Alma ever forgives him, he'll want to tell her about the final moments of the concert. Instead--the world goes black.

When he wakes, there's chaos all around him. Making it to the door seems like a fantasy. But a hand reaches out to him through the smoke to pull him up. The boy is hurt worst than him--there's a gash in his side. But the boy gets Jeremy to his feet and they take halting steps forward.

Olive, Felix and Jeremy were strangers at the beginning of the night--just three of thousands of fans who came to hear someone sing. By the end of the night, these three bound by terror and hope, will have to be brave in ways they never imagined to survive.
