Eleven minutes might as well be eternity underwater. It only takes three minutes without air for loss of consciousness. Permanent brain damage begins at four minutes. And then, when the oxygen runs out, full cardiac arrest occurs. Death is possible at five minutes. Probable at seven. Definite at ten. Delaney Maxwell was underwater for eleven minutes. And she’s alive.Intrigued? Then make sure you get your hands on a copy of Fracture by Megan Miranda, published 5th January 2012. If you can’t wait until then you can read an extract and take a look at the trailer:
Find out more about Megan on her website and follow her on Twitter/
There will be exciting competitions and news on the Facebook page throughout January. Make sure you ‘like’ it to keep up-to-date.
I've been reading about this one, and it sounds pretty good. It's hard enough being a teenager, but one that had a near-death (or kinda total death) experience has got to flip their whole world upside down.
ReplyDeleteAnd that trailer is definitely awesome!
