Four young people fight to survive the streets, in this gritty novella about those left behind: "Compulsive reading." -Mick Finlay, author of the Arrowood mysteries

Industry is in decline. The streets are in decay. Many have gone-while those who remain seek escape in drugs.

Alex consumes heroin to forget his abusive father. Jim hides from guilt about the friend he didn't save. Chelsi's brother killed a local boy, and ostracism pushes her toward a rival gang, prostitution, and loneliness. Danny is a hustler, but needs protection from the drug gang that supplies him.

Can any of them endure against the odds in a town that could be anywhere in a world of addiction, crime, isolation, and manipulation?

Debut author Paul Linggood raises challenging questions about a society that has become increasingly violent, in this novella of gripping suspense and gut-wrenching realism.
