Dublin boxer Sparrow McCabe has the Spanish contender
on the floor. The World Featherweight title is his for the taking. But something stops Sparrow from throwing that final punch and suddenly it’s all over.
Fifteen years later Sparrow is working as a driver for the
gangster Simon Williams, trying to turn a blind eye to the scams, the extortion rackets and the rough justice handed out by Williams and his heavies.
Then murder enters the picture and Sparrow decides to take a stand. This is one fight he cannot lose.
From Brendan O'Carroll, author of the bestselling Mrs Brown trilogy and the BAFTA-nominated TV series Mrs Brown's Boys.

Praise for The Scrapper
'Everybody loves a good thriller, and this book, the seventh book for children by the hugely acclaimed Eithne Massey - doesn’t disappoint ... The setting and descriptions are wonderfully evocative - you feel like you’re right there in the middle of the stench and chaos .... Kai’s story is edge-of-your-seat stuff, a vivid tale of one boy’s fight for survival in the oh-so-fittingly named Dark Ages.' The Irish News
'something of a classic tale in the modern mode' Books Ireland
'... another fine piece of work by one of this country’s finest entertainers ...the story is great ... you’ll enjoy this read' Evening Echo
