Synopsis

A story for this generation . . . written with love, passion and intelligence
Benjamin Zephaniah

This is a long story and a bitter one, but I will try to tell it as honestly as I can, because I ve come to understand that what happened wasn t all my brother s fault. Nor Lance s for that matter, nor Quin s. No I was as much to blame as any of them. More so, probably, because, in the end, it was my hand on the knife.

After a gang feud claims its first life, violence escalates. But then the prophetic words of a strange old baglady start to come true, and Art and the girl he loves have one chance to make good, one chance to bring honour and peace to a murderous world. Fierce, tender and unflinching, Knight Crew breathes the passions of ancient legend into a contemporary wasteland passions that can either create or destroy.
