When tall, fair, good looking but lonely Mark Martin living in northern England is offered a lot of money in 1961, aged just fourteen, it sets him off in a whole new direction as a rent boy.
At the same time he becomes labelled a hero so his public profile is raised at a time when he wants to keep certain things very private. How does he balance these two?
Highly respected and destined for success, he then finds that the dark world of the under-age, gay sex worker is more complex and dangerous than he thought. He is later forced to escape across the world on a wild adventure with his protector and lover but finds himself in even more danger.
Warning: The issue of pedophilia is examined from the point of view of the child for which the author drew on some of his own experience as a teenager in the 1960s.
Available for Kindle, in paperback, hardback and as an audiobook.
Not suitable for under 18s or the faint-hearted.
