Jason Willow
What if vampires and werewolves are just a cover-story for something much worse?
Twenty years ago, Jason’s father ran from a hidden war against demons and the fanatical Brethren who summon them. However, his arcane powers were too valuable for either side to let go. After years of changing lives to evade inhuman assassins, Jason’s mother is killed and the hunt is on.
A terrifying new world opens up all around Jason - a grey world of demons, possessed innocents and secret societies. Amidst first love and betrayal in an isolated abbey, Jason must decide whether to embrace his own supernatural powers or forever run from the treacherous, deadly life his fatherswore to leavebehind.
But time is running out. Nothing in the abbey is what it seems and slowly,the ripples of Jason’s unlocked abilities begin to draw in the darkness that has stalked him since birth.
Jason Willow is packed full of hard-hitting martial arts and gun action, suspense and tightly controlled powers. The high-octane elements are balanced by friends and enemies embroiled in complicated family and romantic relationships. The modern-day story plays out over such locations as a remote Scottish island, a high-tech abbey stronghold, a gang-controlled school and a hellish brewery town lost deep in the Yorkshire moors.
At its heart, Jason Willow is the universal story of how family relationships can be torn apart when a boy becomes more powerful than his father.
The U.K. School Librarian Association Reviewd this book read what they said:
“This exciting first novel is not for the faint hearted with menacing locations and action descriptions. It is a story of the struggle of a boy who has all the usual teen angst as well as having to deal with a family secret which catches up with him. Issues of bullying, violence, family loyalties, friendships and the battle between good and evil make this a fairly complex but exceedingly hard to put down novel…” (School Librarian Magazine, Summer 2008)
