Description
Can she save him from himself?
Growing up in one of Manchester’s roughest council estates, teenager Mark (Macca) McNeil's life seems already written for him until together with mates Todd, Spinxy, Shay and Leroy they decide to commit to a life of crime and form a gang to make a name for themselves.
This is the ticket out he has been waiting for but then, there is Joanne. They come from the same estate but she is a good girl, heading places. She loves his lavish gifts and the life he is promising her but she doesn’t want to see what Macca is capable of. And if she does, what will Macca choose, love or money?
The gang once saved him but now will it destroy everything else?

Heather Burnside is one of my favourite authors, I love her ‘Working Girls’ series and have also enjoyed her ‘Manchester Stand Alones’
In ‘Redemption’ ( also a Manchester stand alone ) we follow a gang of friends as they negotiate the end of their life at School and go forward into their careers…of crime, the book then follows what happens to them all with the main character ‘Macca’ ( Mark ) being the focus
We meet some interesting folkon the way as ‘Macca’ and the others get into all kinds of strife and bad life choices
Well written as always the book keeps you involved and paints a realistic picture of what life was like for these friends, good and bad and everything inbetween and I enjoyed it being sent mainly in the 80’s ( although does move on in time as the story progresses )
Another enjoyable read from this author

I absolutely LOVE the books by this author. I am always genuinely gripped by her writing and this book was no different.
You know when you find an author … and you KNOW you are just going to love the next book.
Mark (Macca) lives in a run down estate. This book is about the choices he makes, along with gang of friends. All they want is a decent life, but it doesn’t always work out like that. Sometimes you need to make bad choices to survive!
Book out 17th August
