About this book

Fifteen-year-old Lewis Lusk is a working-class Glaswegian boy who, detached from his mum and his peers, finds comfort in his close relationship with his protective older brother, Justin. Struggling to navigate a world he doesn’t quite understand, Lewis has recently come to realise that he’s been chosen for something – for what, he isn’t yet sure, but he’s been given a mask to help him find out. When Lewis is then given a knife, however, a chain of events is set in motion that will change the lives of Lewis and the people he loves forever.

Young Mungo meets The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Knife Story is a strange, murky, gripping tale about the intricacies of trauma and the things that glow in the dark.
