Ride of Death by Catherine Macphail

Ride of Death by Catherine Macphail

Ever since Ram woke up in a tower block a few weeks ago, the deadly and mysterious Dark Man has been hunting him down. With no memory of who he is or what has happened to him, the only thing Ram can be certain of is that time is running out - and not just for him, for everyone. Ram knows that if he is ever to discover the truth about his identity, the lone bomber and the terrible threat that faces the world, he must turn the tables on the Dark Man. The time for running is over. In this shocking conclusion to the Nemesis series, Ram faces one final confrontation with his nemesis and evil forces more powerful than he could ever imagine.

Catherine was born and brought up in Greenock in Scotland, where she still lives. She started off writing short stories for magazines and radio, as well as two romantic novels. She never even considered writing for children until something happened to her daughter, Katie, which sparked off her first novel for teenagers, Run Zan Run. It was published in 1994 and won the Kathleen Fidler Award for a first novel. Her second, Fighting Back was one of the first winners of the Scottish Children's Book Award in 1999. More recently, Roxy's Baby was the Bloomsbury book that appeared on the most award shortlists in 2006. It also made the longlist for the Carnegie Medal. Nemesis: Ride of Death is Cathy's twenty-fourth book. She has been Chair of the Scottish Children's Writers and Illustrators, as well as a past President of the Scottish Association of Writers.
