The Bad Tuesdays

The Bad Tuesdays is set in present day and is about Splinter, Box and Chess, who live on the Wharf. They know nothing of they past and so begin the journey that will turn their life upside down.
             Children everywhere are disappearing, Jacks and Street Rats. They call them the hunters and they are coming for the Street rats.
             One day the Wharf is attacked by Hunters and all of the children are rounded up and taken away. But the Tuesdays manage to escape and are shocked to discover that they have a bigger part to play in the kidnappings than they thought. The Symmetry want Chess and the Commitee need her too. Which side should she take, or should they just stay out of it all together?
              This book was good once you got into it but the blurb did sound awful. I would recommend it to 10 and up,and for boys and girls.
