Description
Rachel and Susan navigate the challenges of adolescence in 1970s Hastings, where safety lies in numbers and friendship is key to surviving the trials of parents, classmates, and bullies. But when local rock-star Dave enters their lives, they discover that sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll aren't always everything they've dreamed of.
The arrival of Punk music detonates the status quo, sending their lives into a tailspin. This is a humorous and poignant novel about growing up in the 1970s, the fragility of teenage friendships, and the twists and turns of emerging adulthood.
