Raphael is a dumpsite boy. He spends his days wading through mountains of steaming trash, sifting it, sorting it, breathing it, sleeping next to it.
Then one unlucky-lucky day, Raphael's world turns upside down. A small leather bag falls into his hands. It's a bag of clues. It's a bag of hope. It's a bag that will change everything.
Soon Raphael and his friends Gardo and Rat are running for their lives. Wanted by the police, it takes all their quick-thinking and fast-talking to stay ahead. As the net tightens, they uncover a dead man's mission to put right a terrible wrong.
And now it's three street boys against the world...
Reviews / Votes
One of the most exciting and original novels of the year . . . It's a tight, thrilling story, told from various characters' perspectives and has a Slumdog, feel-good pulse beating through it. A genuine treasure find -- Sally Morris * Daily Mail * One of my favourite novels of 2010, now in paperback with a new cover look. Reminiscent of Slumdog Millionaire, three dumpsite boys take on the world in this gripping and intensely moving story . . . Harrowing, exhilarating, humbling and quite brilliant -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller * Outstanding, hotly anticipated thriller . . . an exceptionally satisfying plot -- Amanda Craig * The Times * Great stuff: taut, plausible and thought-provoking -- Toby Clements * Daily Telegraph * Trash is a thriller with moral weight and a complex structure . . . Without ever moralising, Mulligan raises issues of corruption, poverty, waste and excess in an exciting, but also grimly sad tale -- Suzi Feay * Financial Times * Wonderful - an exciting story with engaging characters told in a clever way with spare but lyrical prose . . . Trash comes highly recommended by me, and I don't have time to say any more about it because I'm off to read it again. And after that, I might read it again. And then again. You read it too * The Bookbag * A superbly original tale -- Natasha Harding * The Sun * This is a highly entertaining and very satisfying book which should be recommended to all. It needs to be read. -- Marilyn Brocklehurst * The Bookseller * Harrowing, exhilarating, humbling and quite brilliant * The Bookseller * Headlong and heart-stopping, this is an adventure you just can't put down -- Julia Eccleshare * Love Reading 4 Kids *More details
