This website is dedicated to the memory of Jessica Lincoln Smith, a John Marsden fan.
Lost tragically at 26, but never to be forgotten.


“The Third Day, The Frost” page 54
"It was no secret what we were thinking about. I stole a glance at Kevin. He was staring into the distance, lips trembling, as though he was reliving every moment of it in his mind. I wondered about his reactions. How did we seem to him now? How much had we changed? I knew we'd changed a bit, of course, but after seeing the expression on Kevin's face when we killed the soldier, I began to wonder if we'd changed more than we realised. He'd looked at us like we were creatures from another planet. Well, at least I knew that wasn't true. We weren't creatures from another planet. We were just creatures from Hell."
