Samenvatting

A gripping thriller about a teenage boy sucked into the dark world of a cult.

At first glance they looked dead ordinary. A few blokes, a girl in a white dress, faces you might see anywhere. But on closer examination they did look different. And then it dawned on me. Everyone seemed remarkably happy.

Ok, maybe not totally ordinary.
They did seem a little strange – weird, even.
But their questions haunted me:
'What's the point of it all?
Why do any of us bother?'
I hate all that feel-good, religious rubbish.
But that wasn't what they were about.
They just seemed genuinely content with their lives.
I wanted to be with them.
I wanted what they had.
At least, I thought I did…

A gripping thriller about a teenage boy sucked into the dark world of a cult.

Eighteen-year-old Joe is bored. Stuck at home after a bout of glandular fever, all his friends have left Manchester and gone to university, leaving Joe with nothing but his rather annoying family for company. When he meets Kate and Nick on the train, something about them appeals to him. So he goes to see them at their commune, a farm in rural Todmorden.

Gradually, Joe’s life starts to make sense. With the White Ones he is wanted, and his life has a purpose. When he meets Bea at the farm, he really feels that his life is complete, and he decides to leave his family and live with the White Ones forever.

But there is something sinister about Fletcher, the Todmorden White Ones leader. Fletcher seems obsessed with Joe – convinced that he is a Perfect, and someone to be venerated. A dramatic trip to the wildest reaches of Orkney will show Joe his destiny – and reveal some shocking truths.

Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews? Hoe controleren en plaatsen wij reviews?

Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online. We controleren wel eerst of ’ie voldoet aan onze reviewvoorwaarden en niet nep is. We controleren ook of ’ie is geschreven door iemand die het artikel heeft gekocht via bol.com en zetten dit er dan bij. De controles gebeuren automatisch, al kijken er soms mensen mee. Bol.com betaalt niet voor reviews. Als een reviewer door een andere partij is vergoed, staat dit in de review zelf.
