An incredible debut novel: a coming of age tale set against the backdrop of the Yorkshire Ripper murders, full of daring, authenticity and wit.
Ricky, a teenage boy growing up in 1970s Yorkshire, has got a lot on his plate - he is gay and hiding the fact from his family, he has to spend his days driving a Corona van, and he is only a stone's throw away from the Yorkshire Ripper murders.
'Blood Relatives' is a fresh, disarmingly funny coming of age novel, and a tender, tragic portrayal of a city and its culture.
