For the boy who has everything - here's a little something extra:
Swap the happy family home in leafy suburbia for a dodgy Northern estate, home of your dying grandfather.
Swap the gorgeous Emily for Jade. She's got a few secrets of her own. You don't want to know. Really.
Swap those loving parents for turf wars, crime, drugs and a stranger who, incredibly, claims to be your father.
This isn't one of those dreams you wake up from — for fifteen-year-old Aidan it's a slice of life that is all too real.
A sensational thriller that will raise your blood pressure and set your pulse racing.
