A boy caught up in an urban gang is forced to kill. Now he must face the consequences.

Jay is fifteen years old and a member of the Blake Street Boyz gang. With a knife in his pocket and his best friend Milk by his side, he spends his time fiercely defending their turf. He takes his lessons from the streets and thinks he knows everything about choices.

Choose the right gang, and they will protect you. Choose the right clothes, the right chat, the right snacks and you will be respected. But now he’s coming of age and he’s being given the chance to step up. He must stab and kill a member of a rival gang… and there are no choices left.

This is a story set against the backdrop of London’s inner-city tower blocks, where killing can be easier than choosing a chocolate bar; where gang violence rules, and where loyalty can cost you your soul.
