The Runaways

Victor Canning
$11.04 $12.99

On a night of wild storms, two troubled figures escape from captivity.


One is a 15-year-old boy, Samuel Miles, a.k.a. 'Smiler', wrongly convicted of theft and sent to a young offenders institution. The other is a cheetah, Yarra, a restless resident of Longleat Wildlife Park.


Both are in danger from the outside world - and each other - but somehow their lives become inextricably bound up as they fight for survival on the edge of Salisbury Plain.


A fast-moving and compassionate adventure story, The Runaways is the first book in Victor Canning's classic children's trilogy.
