From the groundbreaking author of the critically acclaimed novels 'Martyn Pig' and 'Lucas', comes 'Kissing The Rain', a new intricately crafted tale for teenagers.
Moo Nelson is a teenager dealing with the realities of being bullied. The teasing; the shoving; the name-calling - it's what Moo Nelson calls "the rain". He escapes his life by frequenting the bridge - where everything is different. High above traffic, Moo can watch the world go by and be in peace. Until the night Moo witnesses a car chase, and a murder.
Suddenly, everyone - gangsters, policemen, and even the school bullies - wants the truth from Moo. But Moo isn't sure what's true any more. He must decide between truth and lies, loyalty and loneliness, justice and retribution. And he must do it soon . . .
