In the age of AIDS and Section 28: a secret that could change political history It is 1987, and Tommy Wildeblood has put his days as a Piccadilly Circus rent-boy long behind him. Slightly to his own surprise, he is now a rookie teacher at a South London comprehensive. But when Margaret Thatchers government launches a chilling attack on the promotion of homosexuality in a new law known as Section 28, Tommy cant stay silent especially when he realises he may have information about one of Thatchers key lieutenants that could change the political situation completely. Forming an uneasy alliance with a sharp-elbowed tabloid journalist, and delving deep back into his past on the Dilly, he puts everything on the line for both himself and his old friends in a desperate bid to expose the truth. With his trademark blend of historical research and what if fiction, Adam Macqueen captures the spirit of a frightening age in another spellbinding case that lifts the lid on the Eighties political establishments murkiest secrets.
