Synopsis
Ghost From A Perfect Place
Published by Methuen
1 Male 4 Female
Back in the sixties, Travis Flood and his gang terrorised Bethnal Green
Now, after an absence of 25 years, Travis returns and meets Rio, whose haunting beauty leads him to confront a story that bears no relation to his own distorted memory
And then there's the Cheerleaders ... a present-day gang, more vicious and terrifying that anything Travis led in the past

"Astonishingly affecting ... startling" ~ Evening Standard
"Lit up by sharp humour ... the author's quirky imagination at its best" ~ Daily Telegraph
"Philip Ridley has the gift of prescience" ~ Time Out London
