Richard T. Kelly: Crusaders, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In 1996, just before the rise of New Labour, Reverend Gore returns to his native Newcastle charged with planting a new church in one of the city's rougher estates. As he settles into the local community, he becomes involved with Stevie, a local "security consultant', Lindy, a street-wise single mother, and Martin, an ambitious local Labour MP. But these relationships draw Gore into a moral crisis. This extraordinary debut novel is driven by sharp social observation, darkly desperate humour and an undercurrent of impending violence.
