Caught in the Crossfire

Set in a northern town where right-wingers are determined to stir up hatred and racial prejudice, six teenagers lives are woven together by a series of shocking and tragic events.

Inspired by the Oldham riots and the events of September 11th, this is a chilling account of current events in Britain, but written with humor and understanding.
