About the Book

Stevie McBride has just turned seventeen. Already, he's struggling to come to grips with what life is about, how he fits in, and what his future might hold. He lives in a part of town where graffiti is daubed on walls, not as folk-art, but rather an expression of anger by those unlucky enough to live there. Until now though, he's managed to fly under the radar of the local gangs. Stevie hopes to one day meet a girl, someone special, with whom he can share his secret hopes, feelings, and doubts, but he's inexorably shy, and the girls he knows just aren't his type. One morning, while running an errand for his mum, Stevie spots some money lying on the floor of the grocers. He decides to keep it and heads to the fairground for some fun. What happens next sends the teenager's normally well-ordered life spinning out of control, and he finds himself on a pathway of escalating crime, driven by his own naivete and fear of next-door neighbor, Archie. And somewhere along this road, he meets Julie... Small Fish Big Fish is a powerful coming of age novel, a psychological thriller about teen violence and bullying, and a moving story of family and young romance. Adults and older teenagers will love the authentic 20th century setting, the drama, and the suspense brought to life by PJ McDermott's gritty biographical fiction.

About the Author :
PJ McDermott was born in his grandparents' house in the town of Barrhead just outside Glasgow but spent most of his growing up in Ferguslie Park, a notorious suburb of Paisley, where he developed a healthy appreciation for self-preservation. In his teens and early twenties, PJ sang and played in several bands on the local folk circuit and pub scene. By twenty-one, a girlfriend convinced him to go to Glasgow University where he had a ball, and graduated Bachelor of Science. When he graduated, he fell in love with an Aussie girl who convinced him to return to Melbourne with her. Married to Susan, they now have two children (Fiona and Gillian) and three grandchildren (Mia, who is especially cheeky, ) Ryder Patrick, and Ethan (who is too young to be cheeky yet - but is very cute.) PJ discovered a love for writing and published his first book in 2014 - a coming of age novel titled "Small Fish Big Fish." PJ is also the author of the science fiction series, Prosperine, comprising The Alien Corps, Rise of the Erlachi and The Scarf.
