His friends call him Psycho. He hates school and has a burgeoning career in house-breaking. His dad left when he was just a kid, and now he's stuck on a mountain-top estate with the worst reputation in Wales. His best mate Daniels - if you can call him a mate - sniffs glue. Emma's always hanging round trying to straighten him out, and now his Mum's got a bun in the oven and rat-faced Humphries - the father - has scarpered.   Just when Mark thought things couldn't get any worse they promptly do. Is there any hope when the police come knocking and Mark is swallowed by the young offenders system? The recriminations, the child psychologists, the screws, a family crisis: it all feels too much for a young loner like Mark. There's no escape. Or is there?  Status Zero is the story of an adolescent starting from a perilous position in a society which couldn't give a shit. Provocative, moving, it is also the story of a boy becoming a man, challenged by responsibilities the action films don't tell you about.  Roger Granelli is a musician and writer. He is the author of five novels, including Crystal Spirit, Dark Edge and Resolution.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49549701972241,"sku":"GOR003559861","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1854112554.jpg?v=1751154650"},{"product_id":"crystal-spirit-book-roger-granelli-9781854113320","title":"Crystal Spirit","description":"Personal and political freedom in 1930s Wales is the subject of this moving novel. The central character seeks to escape work as a miner during the Great Depression, and through his involvement in the Labour Movement, he finds himself in the International Brigades in the Spanish Civil War. Through battle and subsequent imprisonment, he finds the maturity to eventually return to his poverty-stricken Welsh valley and contribute to its regeneration. This gripping and affecting narrative is persuasive and authentic in its portrayal of the Depression and full of remarkable scenes from the Spanish Civil War. It is a moving testament to those who suffered in Wales and Spain yet remained undefeated by the horrors of poverty and a brutal war.

Mark Richards, having rebuilt his life after a traumatic, deprived past, is a private investigator in London. When his beautiful girlfriend, Lena, is brutally and sadistically slain his life is turned upside down.   In his search for her killers, he becomes hunter and hunted, exacting revenge whilst trying to stay alive. His quest turns into a bloody rites of passage, which takes him from London to the Midlands, to the hills of south Wales, and, ultimately, to Amsterdam, where the savage climax of the book is played out amidst the seedy back alleys of the red light district.  Mark Richards finds out more than he ever wanted to know, old demons rear up again in his mind, and he has to reach deep into his soul to survive.  PRAISE FOR Dead Pretty: 'This is a thriller which will lead you by the nose through some fine writing. Granelli sets the scenes in London, South Wales and Amsterdam with keen observation and gives us characters that may sometimes be extreme but are always believable. The pace is electric and keeps you hooked. It would make a good film as well as a good read' Western Mail  'His characters breathe, make you care. One day the people who count will realise that Roger Granelli is one of the best street-level thriller writers around'  Phil Rickman, Author  'Granelli should appeal to readers of grisly realistic thrillers and is the best such author to revel in his Welsh roots'  Waterstones bookseller","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49615420555537,"sku":"GOR003279778","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1906373582.jpg?v=1750964614"},{"product_id":"river-of-hope-book-roger-granelli-9781912368457","title":"River of Hope","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49623158128913,"sku":"GOR013635535","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1912368455.jpg?v=1751282446"},{"product_id":"dead-pretty-rare-book-roger-granelli-1646039644ada","title":"Dead Pretty","description":"2009.
