Description
Set against the backdrop of teenage alienation and conflict, Watermelon is a hard-hitting account of the brutal realities faced by those living on the streets. Fifteen-year-old Mikey's desperate bid to belong leads him down a treacherous path, where loyalty is tested and the cost of survival spirals out of control.
As violent clashes with rival gangs escalate, Mikey is forced to confront the harsh consequences of his choices. With its breakneck pace and authentic voice, Watermelon draws the reader into a world of desperation and betrayal, culminating in a fatal and nail-biting conclusion.
