Danny Boy is ‘gloriously nostalgic’ My Weekly Books of 2023
choice ‘A terrific, edge-of-the-seat story … whose ending had
me in the right kind of tears’ Maggie Gee ‘As evocative as
Graham Green's iconic Brighton Rock ***** Amazon reviewer
‘Fantastic storytelling’ ***** Amazon reviewer ‘Gripping
story – engaging, entertaining and moving. A terrific read’
***** Amazon reviewer Danny Byrne has grown up on a sprawling
council estate in Pimlico. He knows every stone of it, and until
now, his life has followed the same pattern as all his friends.
Danny is heading for A-levels and then university. Dodds is
following his dad into the family butcher’s business, Crockett
will sail on opportunity’s wings as it comes his way, and Nobby
is flirting with drugs, and disaster. As the long summer unfolds,
the boys focus on girls, trade banter and test their friendships to
the limit. When things take a darker turn, Danny must wrestle with
his conscience and is pushed to breaking point. Can Danny find love
and work out what is important to become the kind of man he wants
to be? Praise for Barry Walsh: ‘Perfectly evokes the era’ Daily
