Summary
Joey Clarke was just fifteen when his dad died, leaving him to raise his much younger siblings as his mum dealt with the trauma of bereavement and her failing health. Ten years on, Joey's only pleasure is spending time with his friend Becca, the love of his life. It's the one escape from his dead-end job, his ever-increasing debts, and the fear that bailiffs will knock on his front door any day.
So when a phone call brings Joey the chance to ease the burdens of his life, he grabs the opportunity, even though he knows things are not entirely as they should be. He justifies it to himself as a way to get back on his feet. But when he finds himself party to a crime involving Becca, he panics.
As Joey tries to find a way out, he becomes further embroiled in a web of secrets, lies, and deceit. At risk of losing everything and everyone he holds dear, Joey must consider the unthinkable.

Absolutely superb
The main character Joey is down on his luck and an unfortunate phone call seems to spiral his life in the wrong direction. You feel for Joey with all the events that follow. Another Superb book by A J Campbell and would highly recommend.

Good story
Severall twists in what I thought was a good story. Poor Joey, he was such a kind chap. Caring for his family. How easy it is for some to get drawn into crime. A good free listen!
