Stone Cold è un thriller vincitore della Carnegie Medal di Robert Swindells. È uno degli Originals della Penguin: iconico, schietto, primo. Una trama da thriller teso si unisce a un ritratto perspicace e straziante della vita di strada mentre un serial killer si accanisce contro i giovani e vulnerabili senzatetto. Link, 17 anni, è diffidente nei confronti delle persone finché non si accoppia con Deb, un'altra giovane senzatetto. Ma ciò che Deb non gli dice è che è un'ambiziosa giovane giornalista con un incarico autoimposto per rintracciare l'assassino ed è pronta a usare se stessa come esca. Gli Originals sono i pionieri della narrativa per giovani adulti. Dal risveglio politico, alla guerra e all'amore non corrisposto, alla dipendenza, alla gravidanza adolescenziale e all'olocausto nucleare, gli Originals affrontano grandi problemi e articolano verità difficili. La collezione comprende: The Outsiders - SE Hinton, I Capture the Castle - Dodie Smith, Cartoline dalla terra di nessuno - Aidan Chambers, Dopo la prima morte - Robert Cormier, Caro nessuno - Berlie Doherty, La steppa infinita - Esther Hautzig, Buddy - Nigel Hinton, Di là dalle barricate - Joan Lingard, Il dodicesimo giorno di luglio - Joan Lingard, Non si torna indietro - Beverley Naidoo, Z per Zaccaria - Richard C. O'Brien, L'onda - Morton Rhue, Il pony rosso - John Steinbeck, La perla - John Steinbeck, Stone Cold - Robert Swindells.
