About this listen

FOUR FRIENDS. A SECRET THAT WILL HAUNT THEM FOR LIFE

GOODBYE prog rock, flairs and mullets. Hello punk, ripped jeans and Mohicans.

Yes, it’s the late 1970s, but for pals Fred, Trish, Greg, and Ricky, some things about growing up never change as they plunge into a whirlwind of outrageous antics.

Together with their gang in a Scottish new town, they laugh, cry, booze, battle and obsess about sex as they discover the power of friendship and, for Fred and Trish, true love.

But the bond is ripped apart when a drunken prank goes tragically wrong.

Twenty-five years on, all roads lead home as teenage demons – and passions – are resurrected amidst ugly threats and shocking revelations that turn old beliefs on their heads.

The lives the four have led couldn’t be more different but as showdowns loom, they all face the same question...

Will confronting the dark secrets of the past redeem them or destroy them?

Absolutely wonderful book, I feel bereft now it's finished. The story made me laugh and cry. The narrator really captured the heart of the story. Can't wait for the next one.

Outstanding!
