Gang War

Gang War

Summary

'If those pricks want a war, lad, we'll show what some proper soljas can do.'

Dylan, Nogger and their crew 'tax' rival drug dealers using a red-hot steam iron and celebrate by making videos of themselves raping wannabe WAG s. In their world, guns and knives are as common as mobile phones. But when an innocent three-year-old girl is killed in the crossfire, extreme measures are brought in to combat gang warfare.

From burgeoning organised crime to warped celebrity culture, Gang War is an apocalyptic vision of a world in freefall.

The gripping debut novel by the bestselling author of Powder Wars is a mind-blowing tale that is all the more shocking because it is inspired by real-life events.
