Publisher's Synopsis
"History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes."It's August 1994, in Limerick, Ireland and Jonathan Musgrave is 15, going on 16, and loves his girls, his music, and his booze - among other things. When his rock band finally find the drummer they've been looking for, a chance to compete in a local battle of the bands comes their way, with a prime spot at a local music festival among the prizes.Life is pretty sweet for Jon, until he meets a girl who looks like trouble, and has what would be a night to remember - if he could remember it. From there, he finds himself entangled in a local mystery, a possible crime, and a love affair that takes him by surprise, teaches him who he is, and shows him what he wants to be. But somewhere, behind the scenes, a secret he is keeping threatens to destroy everything he loves.After almost four years West returns to the universe of his debut The Boys of Summer, with a new lead character, the return of some old favourites, and a story that will make you laugh, make you cry, but above all, keep you reading until the final page.
