The Supernaturalist

Jack Davenport reads "The Supernaturalist" by Eoin Colfer, the award-winning author of "Artemis Fowl". It's Satellite City, sometime in the third millennium. It is a vast metropolis, controlled by a giant satellite. Twenty-five million people inhabit the city, and Cosmo Hill is one of them. A fourteen-year-old 'no sponsor' - someone whose parents cannot be traced - he lives in an orphanage, where the children are used as guinea pigs for genetically modified food or untested chemical products. One day, Cosmo escapes, but the attempt almost costs him his life. As he lies wounded on a rooftop, ghostly blue Parasites attempt to suck out his remaining life force. He is rescued in the nick of time by three wisecracking youths. Stefan, Mona and Ditto are Supernaturalists, on a mission to hunt down and kill Parasites. They take Cosmo under their wing - and his life will never be the same again.
