The future of the universe is written.

Aleksander can steal time—the most he can take at the moment is fifteen seconds, which is not a lot. His grandmother took almost three minutes once, and she told him she’s done more, but he never saw it. She says there are stories of someone who can take all the time in the world, but how can that be right?

Newly arrived in England, Alex must use his extraordinary gift to find his father—whilst hiding from the police, criminal gangs, people smugglers, and corrupt government forces that are chasing him.

Perfect for fans of Inception and Artemis Fowl, Running Out of Time is a thrilling time-twisting debut, stuffed full of extraordinary twists and incredible action, from an exciting new voice in children’s fiction.
