Fries Erik Tyler

Fries are the greatest company on the planet. From their beginnings as a small IT company they now help the Third World and the environment, spread Peace, Love and Unity and sell the most nutritionally balanced junk food ever invented. There might be a suggestion that they are aliens trying to rule the world but, on the plus side, their fries taste great.

Everybody loves Fries, everybody except Lucy. Lucy is thirteen. She lies to her friends, is embarrassed by her mum and wishes her dad would get off the sofa occasionally. She does not hate Fries, no one can, but when they want to knock down an old hotel inhabited by a mythical creature she begins to have doubts.

Against the backdrop of a town, where old ladies use voodoo, ghosts lurk in the charity shop and rats see themselves as gods, Lucy and the creature take on spies, lies, and her own craving for Fries. It's a taste to die for.
