Book description

Across Belfast the Loyalist community is steadying itself for the orgiastic drug-fest that is the sacred and glorious Twelfth of July. As "The Boney" looms larger day by day, UDA wannabes are drawn like moths to a flame. Up in the flats, hardman Tommy thinks Leanne is more like his ma than his sister, but in her head Leanne is anything but maternal. And when Tommy's pal Davey arrives with a mysterious new woman, it only takes a spark to ignite the Bonefire. Rosemary Jenkinson is an ex-civil servant from Belfast who studied Medieval Literature at Durham University. Her collection of short stories, Contemporary Problems Nos. 53 & 54, was published by Lagan Press in 2004. The Bonefire is her first published play.
