Win up to 5 copies of Searchlight: The Capture by Ann Bryant

For Children

The nail-biting Searchlight series drops the fantastical into the real world. Alien twins, Zane and Finola desperately teleport across thousands of miles on this weird planet called Earth, in search of their father, whilst trying to remain hidden from a research company who want to steal their brain power.

The fourth in the series, The Capture, sees Zane struggle to reach Balacira with his teleporting skills diminishing. After a long and exhausting journey, Zane is reunited with Finola and family friend Nick. Nick engineers a meeting with Dad in a remote part of the hotel grounds, but a worker from the hotel is watching the encounter and reports the family to the authorities. As the family are discovered lying low in the hotel, the twins and Dad are suddenly surrounded by journalists but Zane and Finola manage to escape as Dad offers himself up to the evil ANT organisation to protect them. But what happens to Dad and will Zane and Finola make it back home with the journalists following them?
