Description
Tilly's life in Belfast is one of quiet desperation. By day, she navigates the city's troubles with its best PR intact. But at night, she finds freedom by climbing to the top of the largest crane, where the urban landscape stretches out before her. It's there that she encounters Brew, a mysterious figure who leaves an indelible mark on her life. Their chance meeting sets off a chain of events that challenges everything Tilly thought she knew about herself and the world around her. As she becomes embroiled in Brew's world, she discovers a community of young people who refuse to be defined by their circumstances. They live in the shadows, taking risks and facing danger with courage and conviction. For Tilly, this new reality forces a choice that will stay with her forever. Will she find the strength to follow her heart, or will the familiar comforts of her old life prove too great to resist?
