Description
James a first-year student at Cambridge is overwhelmed by the thrill of opportunity and startled by his own hunger for friendship. He finds himself seduced by a covert and exclusive circle of friends - the 'Tudor Night Climbers' - who scale the university's turrets after dark transforming it into a dangerous playground of spiralling heights. When still only a novice member of his tribe James begins to fall for the only female in the group the enigmatic and beautiful Jessica and is soon at the heart of a fatal love triangle with the reckless and charismatic leader of the group Francis. When a volatile relationship finally explodes the Night Climbers' funding suddenly dries up until Francis dreams up a heist that will secure them millions but will also test their very souls.
Partly inspired by the original 'Night Climbers' of the Sixties who famously made dare-devil leaps from college roofs this passionate exploration of youth at its most vital and unstable marks the debut of a strikingly gifted new writer.
