Slower
by Ted ShepherdA young-adult, science fiction thriller full of action and suspense.
Emit Friend thought he was a normal bored 14-year-old, until he stumbled upon his power to slow time. At first, he has fun with his power as he learns to use it. He pranks friends, impresses his cousin Ellen, and irritates the high-school bullies. But then he begins to fear that he may not be alone. Others seem to have his same power, and the more he looks into it, the more he realizes how tied they are to some of history’s greatest crimes. Emit starts to reevaluate his power as he unravels the mystery. Has he used it for good? Or is he following in the footsteps of whoever else is out there, using their powers to steal…and even murder?
Perfect for young adult fans of Ender’s Game and the Divergent series, Slower is the thrilling story of a teen coming to grips with a powerful ability and struggling to overcome his inner demons to use it for good.
