A series of mysterious drug-related deaths among runaway teenagers has sent shockwaves through the homeless community in the North East. The rumors circulating on the streets suggest that a rogue batch of Spice, the notorious zombie drug that has been plaguing inner cities, is to blame for these tragic events. However, when one of Jimmy Mullen's closest friends becomes caught up in the carnage, his loyalty drives him to investigate the truth behind the deaths.

One Way Street marks the return of Jimmy Mullen, a homeless veteran suffering from PTSD, as he embarks on a journey to rebuild his life after the events in The Man on the Street. Despite his probation officer's constant reminders that all he needs to do is stay out of trouble, trouble seems to have a habit of finding Jimmy.

Daily Mail praises the book for its smart, thought-provoking nature, filled with bags of heart and humanity. Mari Hannah describes it as a real triumph, while Philippa East hails it as a genuine triumph.

In conclusion, One Way Street is a gripping and compassionate novel that delves into the lives of homeless individuals and the challenges they face in a society that often overlooks them. Jimmy Mullen's journey to uncover the truth behind the drug-related deaths is filled with suspense, heart, and humanity, making it a must-read for anyone who enjoys crime fiction with a touch of social commentary.
