Description
1970. Fourteen-year-old Tony is seduced by the skinhead movement, sucked into a world of racist violence and bizarre ritual. It's a milieu in which he must hide his homosexuality, in which every encounter is explosively risky.
2003. James a young TV researcher, becomes obsessed with Neo Nazis and British Movement activist Nicky Crane in particular. As he becomes immersed in research, he begins to receive threatening phone calls,
Two different worlds, two different eras but two lives that will ultimately and unforgettably collide.
First published 10 years ago by Granta to critical acclaim and long out of print, it is as relevant now as it was then.
