Unexpected Twist (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781350414488)

No matter how hard we try, we just can't get out. It's like we are not allowed to. Some give up and say, "alright then, if you won't give, I will bloody well take." And you know what Shona, I don't blame them.

Shona and her class are studying the Charles Dicken classic, Oliver Twist. She's the new girl in school and is finding it hard to stay out of trouble - much like Oliver himself! When she's given a new phone by a stranger, she begins to suspect there's something unusual about the new boys she's met.
