John Folly House in the late 1950s was a place where raw talent was sought out and nurtured by a staff of strong-willed tutors. John Folly himself, the surprisingly youthful founder, taught woodwork and practical history, but he wasn’t often there. He made Billie Klassen uneasy, for reasons she couldn’t explain. She loved her drama teacher, Altansarnai Bichmoses, even though the teacher was discouraging about Billie’s career chances. Then there was the motor vehicle maintenance tutor, Jim Kelly, who, according to Billie’s classmate Donna, growled when spoken to. When Billie’s best friend from her schooldays arrived to take her for lunch, it set off a chain of events that still echoed in Billie’s psyche decades later.

Stewart Gilmour is back in Stonemouth. After five years in exile his presence is required at the funeral of patriarch Joe Murston, and even though the last time Stu saw the Murstons he was running for his life, staying away might be even more dangerous than turning up. Although there's supposed to be a temporary truce between Stewart and the town's biggest crime family, it's soon clear that only Stewart is taking this promise of peace seriously. As he steps back into the minefield of his past to confront his guilt and all that it has lost him, Stu uncovers ever darker stories, and his homecoming takes a more lethal turn than even he had anticipated. Tough, funny, fast-paced and touching, Stonemouth cracks open adolescence, love, brotherhood and vengeance in a rite of passage novel like no other.
