Wrecked by Robert Swindells
The lives of four sixteen-year-old boys are affected by a growing fondness for alcohol. Mark is the son of a domineering father, MD of a large brewing company. The other three pay local winos to obtain drink for them. All the boys are awaiting their GCSE results and the action unfolds in the course of a day or two either side of these results being published, culminating in tragedy when the boys' paths converge at the club owned by Mark's father.
Robert Swindells taught for eight years before becoming a full-time writer. His books usually carry a message and are particularly directed to teenagers. He won the Children's Book Award twice - for BROTHER IN THE LAND and ROOM 13 - and the Carnegie Medal for STONE COLD. Robert lives on the Yorkshire Moors.
