Notes
Description
Craig Macklin was a teenager when his headteacher told him he was heading to either prison or the grave. Instead, Craig left the north of England, saying goodbye to his friends and family to start a new life. 13 years on, redundant and separated from his wife, he returns for the first time. It's Christmas: markets in full swing, lights twinkling, shoppers shopping, revellers revelling. Manchester has seen a revolution. The buildings soar higher, the shopping centres sprawl wider. New industries have replaced old and yet, away from the glitter, the tinsel, the hot spiced cider and the enormous inflatable Santa, some things will never change. Amid the season, there are secrets from which he cannot escape and, when debt-collectors attack his parents' house, Craig realises the teenage hell-raiser he left behind might not be so buried after all.
