About the Book

But things have changed since he’s been away. The local kids run round in gangs, terrorising the neighbours with drive-by shootings and random drug deals. Respect for the old criminal hierarchy is gone. And turning 40 inside hasn’t helped. His best years are behind him, future opportunities slipping away.

About the Author :
Adam Dickson is a novelist and screenwriter. His novels are, The Butterfly Collector (2012), Drowning by Numbers (2014), Billy Riley (2020), Indigo Blue (2022). He has also co-written three non-fiction books in the sports genre, and a book on mental health, Surfing the Edge: a survivor’s guide to bipolar disorder. In February 2020, he appeared as one of the experts in the CBS Reality crime series, Murder by the Sea. The episode, titled, Neville Heath, the Lady Killer, documents the real-life case of ex-RAF pilot Neville Heath, who was hanged at Pentonville Prison in 1946. He is currently working on two novels and several screenplays, and regularly collaborates with a screenwriting partner, enjoying numerous cappuccinos in cafes on the south coast.   After suffering two massive brain seizures in 2003, which left him permanently disabled, Adam took up running, completing the London Marathon in 2006. An ongoing obsession with triathlon, culminated in an entry in Ironman UK in 2007; he displays the medal in his living room for all to see!

Review :
‘Hooked from the start, fascinating characters and a compelling storyline. Billy Riley, hard man, institutionalised but not reformed. We follow him as he leaves the grim and austere prison life behind him and heads home to his long suffering wife to try to rekindle their marriage. A poignant tale.’ (Miss EM Flattery) ‘Coming from a northern background this took me straight back to the canals of Manchester. Billy Riley and his story captivated me from the first few pages.’ (Karen Ross)
