Danny Boy is ‘gloriously nostalgic’ My Weekly Books of 2023 choice ‘A terrific, edge-of-the-seat story … whose ending had me in the right kind of tears’ Maggie Gee ‘As evocative as Graham Green's iconic Brighton Rock ***** Amazon reviewer ‘Fantastic storytelling’ ***** Amazon reviewer ‘Gripping story – engaging, entertaining and moving. A terrific read’ ***** Amazon reviewer

Danny Byrne has grown up on a sprawling council estate in Pimlico. He knows every stone of it, and until now, his life has followed the same pattern as all his friends.

Danny is heading for A-levels and then university. Dodds is following his dad into the family butcher’s business, Crockett will sail on opportunity’s wings as it comes his way, and Nobby is flirting with drugs, and disaster.

As the long summer unfolds, the boys focus on girls, trade banter and test their friendships to the limit. When things take a darker turn, Danny must wrestle with his conscience and is pushed to breaking point. Can Danny find love and work out what is important to become the kind of man he wants to be?
