Description

Johnny Come Home is a hypnotic and feverish tale of love, loss, and rebellion in 1970s Britain.

The charismatic anarchist Declan O'Connell's sudden death sets off a chain reaction that draws together a cast of characters from the streets and the spotlight. As his boyfriend Pearson and fellow squatter Nina try to make sense of what has happened, they are joined by Sweet Thing, a streetwise rent boy with an uncanny hold over glam rock star Johnny Chrome.

Meanwhile, Detective Sergeant Walker of the newly formed Bomb Squad is hot on the trail, driven by secrets he knows more about than anyone else. As their lives become increasingly entwined, the course of all their stories is about to change forever.
