Anotace knihy

London, 1964. Sharp suits, polished scooters, all-night music and a generation determined to make its own rules. But beneath the glamour of the Mod scene, something far more dangerous is unfolding.

Nineteen-year-old Len Hales knows the importance of appearances. An apprentice tailor with an eye for impeccable clothing, a treasured Lambretta and a passion for music, he spends his days learning his trade and his nights discovering everything London has to offer.

For Len and his friends, life revolves around the record shops of Soho, the dance floors of the capital and the freedom of the open road.

But when a young woman becomes seriously ill after a night out, the world Len thought he understood begins to unravel.

Lorna Price, the independent-minded girl who works at Rook's Records, has questions that powerful people would rather leave unanswered. Meanwhile, Len's closest friend, Ronnie Bell, has been earning suspiciously good money running errands for men whose business dealings are anything but straightforward.

As Lorna withdraws from her familiar life, Ronnie becomes entangled in secrets he scarcely understands, and Len finds himself caught between friendship, loyalty and the growing realisation that appearances can be dangerously deceptive.

Then comes the Whitsun Bank Holiday weekend.

Brighton, May 1964.

Thousands of young people descend upon the seaside town. Mods and Rockers face one another across crowded streets and beaches, while the police struggle to maintain order. Amid the confusion, Len must confront the consequences of choices that began long before the first scooter arrived on the coast.

From the fashionable streets of Soho to the turbulent Brighton seafront, THE FACE is an immersive British historical mystery exploring friendship, ambition, first love, betrayal and the excitement of belonging to a generation determined to be different.

Because in a world where everyone is desperate to be noticed, the most dangerous people are often those hiding in plain sight.
