Julia Eccleshare's comment:
The launch title in a page turning adventure which kicks off when 15 year old Callum is hunted down by a crazed man who carries a deadly warning. Now Cal is on the run from both ruthless criminals and the police. He has 365 days to find out the truth about his father’s mysterious death and to uncover a secret from the past. In January, month one, he has only just begun… This is the first of 12 in the series, with a new title being released each month through 2010. It's also a great series for reluctant readers in particular as each book is pumped full of adrenalin and non-stop action and each book is also quite short.
To view them all together as they are published go to our special Conspiracy 365 category.

Here's what she has to say about writing a series for a younger audience...
'Writing Conspiracy 365 has been the biggest, most exciting project I've ever done. I think I've been in training for this series all my writing life!
I've used every skills I've ever learned in tracking Cal Ormond and his action-packed year of living dangerously. It's been fun watching all the characters evolve and try to make sense of a world which is often hostile and potentially fatal.
I've loved writing this series and hope it brings suspense and thrills to all who read it.'
