William Wall’s tense and moving novel that sets power and corruption against the fragile defences of love, friendship and family
In a gritty urban Ireland, a bright teenager is heading for trouble: rarely at school, taking drugs, and hovering on the fringes of the city’s criminal underworld. When he falls for a drug dealer’s sister his life changes irrevocably, not least because she gets pregnant. And even as he tries to make a new start and adjust to being a lover and father, he realises he cannot evade vengeance forever.
