"In a mall like any other, a gang of teenage girls are suddenly caught up in a maelstrom of shopping and violence. But - as the designer bullets fly - it is not only their own lives they are fighting for. Unknown to them they are battling for the life of a man trapped in another place, in a different world, and with very different enemies. He is a man they have never met, but who represents the future of the human race ...or could destroy it.

Energetic, imaginative ... and, ok, about seventy-five pages too long. Still, I really enjoyed it. -- NH
