Story One: The Billy Can Bomb

The Billy Day and Kevin Knight Trilogy charts the life of two teenagers across five turbulent years. In the voice of Billy, their adventures and quests are revealed through The Billy Can Bomb, The Monesse Mystery and When the String Breaks.

Billy Day is an emotionally intelligent teenager, albeit one with self-doubt and a troubled history, living on a run down estate with his lone parent father; ex-army, ex-prisoner. Close to his father he’s familiar with the realities of life. Kevin’s background is affluent, high achieving middle class, Caribbean. How these two different characters develop in the adventures they share is the theme of the trilogy.
