From Torchwood star John Barrowman, and Carole Barrowman, Exodus Code finds Captain Jack and Gwen in a race to save humanity itself...

> Buy the book on Amazon.

It starts with a series of unexplained events. Earth tremors across the globe. Women being driven insane by their heightened and scrambled senses. And the world is starting to notice – the number one Twitter trend is #realfemmefatales. Governments and scientists are bewildered and silent. The world needs Torchwood, but there’s not much of Torchwood left.

Captain Jack has tracked the problem to its source: a village in Peru, where he’s uncovered evidence of alien involvement. In Cardiff, Gwen Cooper has discovered something alien and somehow connected to Jack. If the world is to be restored, she has to warn him – but she’s quickly becoming a victim of the madness too...

> Buy the book on Amazon.

Lots of twins have a special connection - being able to finish each other's sentences; sensing what the other is thinking; perhaps even knowing when the other is in trouble or in pain - but for 12-year-old twins, Matt and Emily Calder, the connection is beyond special.

Together, the twins have extraordinary powers - they are Animare: able to bring art to life, or enter paintings at will. Their abilities are sought by villains trying to access the terrors of Hollow Earth - a place where all the demons, devils and evil creatures ever imagined lie trapped for eternity.

The twins flee with their mother to the security of Auchinmurn island, off the west coast of Scotland, where their grandfather has certain protective powers of his own. But too much is at stake, and the twins aren't safe there either. The villains will stop at nothing to find Hollow Earth and if Hollow Earth is breached, the world will be plunged into chaos. If Hollow Earth is breached... The twins are as good as dead.
