The Story
In the sweltering summer of 1976 in Liverpool, the heat weighs heavily on teenager Tommy Dwyer as he navigates the tumultuous journey to adulthood. He grapples with the challenges of coming-of-age, including temptation, gang violence, and the harrowing specter of murder, all while striving to prevent the streets from being overrun by the scourge of illegal drugs.
Praise
Meet Tommy Dwyer a young scallywag trying to survive on the mean streets of his urban hometown of Liverpool. It’s 1976, and life is dealing Tommy some tough breaks. His working-class family is dysfunctional, money is tight, his best pal is his dog Butch and his girlfriend has left him. Worse still is the lurking danger of gangs roaming the streets, dealing drugs and smashing faces – this is a powerful, raw and compelling trip to a recent past that channels the ‘This is England’ vibe.
~ Matt Adcock, author of Complete Darkness
