Once the trigger is touched you can't tell who to trust
An unflinching verse novel about a teenage boy who is sexually assaulted in an attack he struggles to remember.
Jay wakes in a park, beaten and bruised. He can't remember what happened the night before. But he has suspicions. Jay realises he has been raped - and that his ex-boyfriend may have been involved. Counselling sessions cause Jay to question everything. His new friend Rain encourages his pursuit of justice. Jay wants answers, but his search will lead him down a perilous path.
As an amateur baker and travel enthusiast, Chris loves cooking up a storm and exploring new places. He brings these skills to his writing concocting fiendish scenarios and exploring fictional worlds. His love of reading and of stories have seen him working upon numerous freelance marketing campaigns as well as providing insightful structural edits, copy-editing and proofreading services to improve manuscript development and accuracy.
Chris is passionate about teaching and currently lectures on the MA in Publishing programme at the University of Central Lancashire. He has worked across a diverse range of publishing and marketing roles for companies including HarperCollins, Egmont and British Airways.
Chris has designed and delivered workshops that have spanned themes including building a social media audience, editing and bogging. He is available to deliver creative writing workshops and for writing residencies as he is an ardent believer in giving back to budding writers.
When he is not working on the twists and turns of a story, or developing creative campaigns, Chris loves to go hiking or to enjoy time with his rescued dog, Ruby.
