Blurb

Out of the ashes of sixty-nine arises a hero, but Tim is not the hero you expect. All heroes true tests are in their inner world, and Tim's feat is to somehow remain a teenager amidst the horror of early seventies Belfast.

Struggling daily to keep his youth separate from the troubles around him. Managing to take on a seemingly ordinary journey through the highs and lows of  a war going on around him.

Through the youth club disco’s, his first love, the fumbling s*x, the banter, and the squabbles of youth, and behind that war, his community under siege by IRA gangsters out of control. Their entangled with special branch, their licence to commit brutality and murder, empowering them to trespass where they're not wanted.

The death count growing, the violence unending, and when its people he loves. Tim Regan answers violence with violence in a local arena where the only gladiators are teenagers in an awesome battle of good versus evil and the curtain raiser towards the ultimate showdown.

WITNESSES
WITNESSES By Seb Larkin Copyright © 2018 All Rights Reserved This is a work of fiction and although its form is that of an autobiography, it is not one. However, for the readers, it holds information intended to help them be better informed about Belfast, it's locations, public offices mentioned, and certain long-standing establishments such as Joseph Kavanagh's, the latter I was given kind permission to use and it really was an Aladdin’s cave in the 1970s. Indeed, it still was in 2014 when I spoke to the then owner. The historical events of the troubles were very real and any resemblance to people living or dead is entirely coincidental. The opinions expressed are those of the characters and should not be presumed to be the authors. No part of this book may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording or by any information storage and retrieval system without permission in writing from the author. ’We were young; dizzy with the gold of youth, Argonauts who sailed the ghetto sea, on new quests; And those who are gone, gaze from the mists of vagueness, each Easter morn, know the truth,’
