Living Nowhere

Corby, the industrial new town built around a vast steel works, draws many to the fires of its furnaces — in the hope of steady work, a better house, a fresh start. Amongst them are Francis Cameron, from Scotland, and his friend Jan Ruckert, the son of Latvian refugees. Alienated, intelligent and curious, they form a strong and lasting bond: two teenage boys finding their feet in a foreign place. But violence hangs in the Corby air like the ash and the stench from the steel works, and when it comes down it is sudden and lethal — with repercussions that will last a lifetime.

Living Nowhere is a story of friendship and loss — a resonant, thrilling book that carries at its core a beautiful and terrible secret.
