Night Runner: A Novel: 1 (Night Runner Novels 1)

For Zack Thomson living in the Nicholls Ward isnt so bad. After his parents died he developed strange and severe allergies and the mental institution was the only place where he could be properly looked after. As strange as it was it was home. He could watch as much television as he wanted; his best friend Charlie visited him often enough; and Nurse Ophelia--the prettiest no-nonsense nurse ever--sometimes took him bowling. Of course that didnt mean he had it easy. His allergies restricted his diet to strawberry smoothies and being the only kid at the hospital could get lonely. But it never once crossed Zacks mind to leave...until the night someone crashed through the front doors and told him to run. Now hes on a race for answers--about his past his parents and his strange sickness--even as every step takes him closer to the darkest of truths.
