Description
After a year out of the ring following a fight that went terribly wrong, Hector Bebb—an electrifying boxer from Cymmer, South Wales—returns with the conviction that he can reclaim his place in the world. But as his talent hardens into obsession, the people around him are forced to confront a brutal question: how far will loyalty and friendship go when a single-minded fighting machine turns into a killer? Stripped of comforting myths, the novel exposes the fragile bonds of family and camaraderie under pressure, tracing Hector’s brief rise and sudden collapse. With Ron Berry’s hard-edged, character-driven style, this is a tense, morally charged story about violence, responsibility, and the cost of believing you can outrun what you’ve done.
