A story about friendship, family, loss, bravery and overcoming adversity.

The truth is out there somewhere . . . but how far is Jack willing to jump to find it? Jack Phillips's allergy to sunshine confines him to the shadows, leaving him lonely and at risk of life-threatening burns every time he steps into the light. Shadow jumping on the rooftops at dusk makes him feel alive. And free. But Jack's condition is suddenly worse than ever and only his missing scientist dad can save him. As Jack and his new friend, Beth, begin their frantic search and delve into his dad's past for clues, they have no idea what they are about to uncover. Shocking rumours and dark secrets bombard them at every turn. Jack is brave on the roofs. But can he find the courage to face the truth?

INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR

Q: How did you decide to write for 10-14 year olds? A: When I was about 9 years old I loved reading action & adventure stories and mysteries. Being totally involved in the story and trying to figure out what was going to happen next was great fun, and for me this was the age when I first became really aware of how fantastic it was to read a well-written, gripping story. I wanted to recreate that feeling in SHADOW JUMPER - to be action-filled and a page-turner but to also tackle contemporary themes and issues.

Q: What order should I read books in the series? Good question! The two books involve a different story, but my recommendation is to read SHADOW JUMPER first followed by the second book TWILIGHT ROBBERY.

Q: What/who inspired the main character, Jack, in SHADOW JUMPER? I have to blame my sons for Jack's main preoccupation of shadow jumping! As children they didn't use to walk to school so much as jump between shadows on the pavement. I put this together with the idea of a boy sensitive to sunlight (a real condition that my dad suffered from, though not in such a severe form) and came up with Jack.

Q. Is this book for boys or girls? Both! Boys and girls between the ages of 9-14, teens and preteens, have read and loved it, so I hope you will too. If you enjoy a fast-paced mystery adventure with lots of plot twists, then SHADOW JUMPER could be the book for you, your child or grandchild. And I'd love to know what you think of it, so do leave a review on here or at www.jm-forster.com

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 5 June 2016

This book is all about relationships, fighting spirit and most importantly willpower. Jack couldn't have done it without Beth's help, remember? This could be made into a movie and if it would, it'd be one huge hit!

Best action book I have ever read.

Im an an 11 year old boy and my mum bought me this book. Immediately after the fist chapter, I was addicted. I was reading it every night and I loved every page. The book was so grabbing and exciting and i was intrigued to know what amazing words waited for me on the next page. Drama and action covered the book and at times emotional. I was really sad when I finished the book and immediately had to write a review. Loved the book and highly recommended.

I bought this months ago but have only just read it - I shall definitely be reading it to my class as each chapter ends on a cliffhanger. I notice that it is JM Forster's first book. I can feel a series growing from this. The reason I have given it four stars and not five is that my personal preference would have preferred to have seen more descriptive language; moreover, the plot starts off well, but the final third lacks some authenticity. I imagine that boys and girls who enjoy adventure would love this - the protagonists are a boy and a girl.

Great read for young teens

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 16 December 2018

Verified Purchase

A great book which covers the effects of a broken marriage on a young teenager but wraps it up in an adventure to keep the reader interested without getting too heavy into the trauma it can cause. It gets the message across really well and is well written with great description throughout.
