The brilliant novelisation of the life of Uriah Rennie, the Premier League's first and only Black referee.
Set entirely on a London bus travelling from Hoxton to Highbury and taking place over just 36 minutes, the events of The 392 unfold through a cast of charismatic characters coming from very different worlds. On the 392 are all the familiar faces you might expect to see on any bus ride through inner-city London in the grip of gentrification: delinquent school kids, the high-flyers, the weird, the wonderful and the homeless. These Londoners share two things: a bus journey and a threat. A threat which is ready to blow apart everything they know.
A soaring and emotional debut YA verse-novel, perfect for fans of Dean Atta and Manjeet Mann. Pen in one hand, on my wrist, a ticking clock I've got to make this work, just need a little luck... When fourteen-year-old music-lover Ronny's life gets messy, his mum decides they're moving out of London. In Norwich, as a Black teenager in a mostly white school, Ronny feels like a complete outsider. He tries his best to balance keeping his head down, and his goal of becoming a rapper alive. But when a local poet comes into class, he opens Ronny's world to something new. Rap is like spoken word, lyrics equal poetry - and maybe the combination of both could be the key to Ronny's dreams?
