Alex can steal time. Only 15 seconds at the moment but his Grandma tells him there are stories of someone who can take all the time in the world. Could it possibly be true?

When Alex and his father are forced to flee their home to escape a brutal government, they begin a life-threatening journey across Europe. But when they are separated before they can reach Britain, Alex finds himself alone, with only his extraordinary gift to keep him alive.

Simon Fox lives in Sussex where he can spend his days staring at the sea instead of working. Running out of Time was his first novel after twenty years trapped in the dungeon of accountancy. He is determined to never go back.
