The Gun
By (author) Bali Rai
Gritty urban drama. When Jonas finds a gun left from a shooting he takes it home. He can’t wait to show his mates Kamal and Binny, who reckon they can use the gun to bolster their own street cred. But when Kamal starts to use the gun in robberies, Jonas realises it’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt – Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 12+
