Buddy by Nigel Hinton is a poignant and utterly believable portrayal of a young boy's challenging relationship with his father. Set against an atmospheric backdrop of the 1980s, this novel delves into the complexities of family bonds when Buddy's mother departs, leaving him to navigate a unique connection with his father. His father, an aging rocker with a penchant for Elvis and motorcycles, exists on the fringes of the underworld. Initially, Buddy and his father develop a tentative relationship, but this bond takes a serious turn as Buddy uncovers his father's involvement in matters far more significant than he could have imagined.
