Catch the Zolt - The Debt: Instalment One (Phillip Gwynne)


Catch the Zolt - The Debt: Instalment One
Phillip Gwynne

Blurb: 
Pay the debt or lose a found of flesh.


It's a beautiful day in paradise. The sun is shining. The birds are chirping. And Dom Silvangni, indifferent student and elite middle distance runner, is turning fifteen.

But instead of cake and candles, Dom receives an unlikely gift. An ancient family debt to an organisation so secretive and powerful, they are non-negoitable: Dom must master six Herculean tasks or they'll take a pound of flesh.

Before long Dom has his first instalment - Catch the Zolt - the seventeen-year-old Facebook Bandit with a penchant for stealing light aircraft. But getting close to the Zolt means being nice to the smug, self-obsessed Tristan...and involving Imogen, the only girl close to Dom's heart.

The more Dom discovers, the less he seems to know. Only one thing is clear. The Debt want their payment...now!

A town where murder follows justice. 


When Carl Lee Hailey guns down the hoodlums who have raped his ten-year-old child, the people of Clanton see it as a crime of blood and call for his acquittal. 

But when extremists outside Clanton hear that a black man has killed two  white men, they invade town, determined to destroy anything and anyone that opposes their sense of justice.

Jake Brigance has been hired to defend Hailey. It's the kind of case that can make or break a young lawyer. But in the maelstrom of Clanton, it is also the kind of case that could get a young lawyer killed.
