Produktbeschreibung

You can leave the gang, but the gang won't leave you... Talented 13-year-old sportsman Gary Marshall experiences the realities of living in a poor suburb when knife-wielding thugs try to rob him of his bike. Rescued by streetwise tough kid Arnie Dolan and his dog Stevo, the two strike up a close bond, forming a gang called the Boxer Boys to protect their territory. When Gary seizes a chance to improve his life by accepting trials with a professional football club, the boys go their separate ways, only to be thrown back together when Gary's parents split up. His world spinning out of control, Gary suffers an horrific injury on a night out and worse is to follow when the two boys are involved in a street brawl which leaves a man dead. Torn apart by circumstance it isn't until eight years later that Arnie seeks out his former partner-in-crime. Where is Gary? And why is he so keen to let the past stay in the past?
