McNeeley the Mouse lives under the stairs in the Turley's house. All is well, except that the Turleys like to eat a lot and don't like to exercise. Each time they go up or down the stairs, the boards creak more than the last time, and McNeeley is afraid that the roof of his own little house will cave in one day. So, McNeeley and his cousins must devise a plan to save his house, and maybe even save the Turleys at the same time!

A group of city kids want to start a radio station. They have known each other a long time and have shared their plans and thoughts for years. And finally they do it—setting up in a fortuitously empty flat, they soon find themselves not only having to deal with the complications of running a pirate radio station but also fending off the attentions of competing boadcasters! And all this alongside their relationships, jealousies and desires to be independent. This brilliant novel, written in the form of a screenplay, is urgent, contemporary, and a well created teenage world—but with perhaps a tiny bit more excitement!

When his older sister Charlie vanishes while traveling through Asia, seventeen-year-old Adam decides he can do more to find her than the nonchalant police and his distraught parents.

With help from new friends, especially the intriguing and beautiful Aiko, Adam prowls the town. His search ultimately leads him to Tokyo’s underbelly of gangsters and drug dealers. Will he learn the truth about his sister’s disappearance before it’s too late?
