All the Wrong Sides

Book excerpt: A car bomb explodes prematurely on the Northern Irish border, missing its intended target. Someone has passed information to the police, but who? Three childhood friends hold the key. During one long night in hospital, Frank will spin his side of the story. This is about the limits of friendship and the pasts we cannot escape for all our efforts to reinvent them. It is about football and song and the noises that stick in our ears. It is about the promise of the lives we could have and the ones we decide to settle for.
