But even in the idyllic wilderness and the heart of her original family, Kyla realizes there is no escape from the oppressive Lorders. There she is hoping all the pieces of her life will come together and she can finally take charge of her own future. Sporting a new identity and desperate to fill in the blank spaces of her life pre-Slating, Kyla heads to a remote mountain town to try to reunite with the birth mother she was kidnapped from as a child.

Teri Terry remarks that her own misplaced childhood provided much of the inspiration for the story, ‘Moving constantly as a child, teenager and also as an adult has kept me on the outside looking in much of my life. Someone is lying to her, and nothing is as it seems. But echoes of the past whisper in Kyla's mind. The government claims she was a terrorist, and that they are giving her a second chance. Terry’s story follows protagonist Kyla, who wakes up to find her memory has been erased and her personality wiped blank. Now her first book for young adults, Slated, has finally been published, and we are thrilled that Terry has found her niche. After spending years thinking up and writing down stories and poems for adults of all ages and tastes, she finally had a breakthrough in 2008, winning a series of ‘writing for children’ competitions at the Winchester Writers Conference. On her travels she has acquired three degrees, a selection of passports, and a self-confessed ‘silly name’ (married into – not born with), and although previous careers have included many jobs most would find fascinating - scientist, lawyer and optometrist, amongst others - it was always ‘writer’ Terry dreamed of having on her CV. Teri Terry has spent a lifetime on the move, living in France, Canada and Australia before settling down in Buckinghamshire England.
