The Family Unity Party is striving for power. Providing you are the perfect model of their ideal family you are safe. But if you stray from convention, you will pay a heavy price.
Against a background of growing civil decay and unrest, fifteen-year-old Jake Holdencroft becomes acquainted with Nathan Tasker and a friendship blossoms through their love of music. As they grow closer, Jake feels the stirrings of something deeper beginning to develop. However, the confusion and fear of being different frustrate the growing liaison. When Nathan’s enraged father, a leading light in the Family Unity Party, discovers their secret, he pursues Jake with an angry mob in tow.
However, unknown to Jake, he has an unexpected rescuer. Once free of the terror of persecution, a new life beckons as part of a hidden but sophisticated gay community, deep in the financial district of London. This is a dangerous world, in which a battle with increasingly violent authoritarian forces is about to start. As Nathan also becomes embroiled in the growing chaos springing from their tentative love, the question remains as to whether the two boys will ever be allowed to be together.
The answer depends on an elite squad of highly trained agents known as the Guardians of the Rainbow.
“James Bond clashes with fascist Britain against the most beautiful love story we’ve read in years. Fortunately 007 is fighting for equality and love, not the government.” www.book-reviewer.com
Publisher Comments: This is a wonderful story. It is an exploration by a brave new author into the world gay men and women still face, that of terrifying prejudice. Freckleton combines action, adventure, gentle romance and social issues with a deft hand. Gay or straight, we can guarantee you will enjoy this exciting story! It really is a modern day spy thriller in the vein of James Bond or Bourne.
