Empty Quarter
Empty Quarter
Nominated for the Carnegie Award 2009
From: Stingo, SAS Secret training base
I woke to find your face splashed across the front pages & U R supposed to B in hiding! What the hell R U doing getting mixed up with the US President's out of control daughter?
From: Darcie Lock, afloat in the Mediterranean
Things R not how the press reported it. Don't know Y I'm here but 1 thing's certain: my so-called cruise is headed into stormy waters.
Darcie's stuck aboard a cruise ship for problem rich kids. It sounds exotic but it’s more like boot camp. Things are about to get interesting though... Darcie becomes embroiled in a kidnapping plot that will take her from Naples, via Cyprus, to Egypt and on a terrifying journey through the desert empty quarter.
An adventure-thriller starring Darcie Lock.
