Summary
What happened to Debbie’s roller skates and Barbi Doll? Why did the toilets in the park explode? Who was the kid in the Penguin enclosure at the Zoo? When did every tortoise in Khartoum Road escape? How does a ten year old boy shut down half of London in 1976? Well, it’s all about Pat really. Pat is trouble. He doesn’t know that of course but he is a wrecking ball. A force of chaos all the same. Pat leaves a trail of wreckage a mile wide. He means well though. And he’s a great kid. A loveable innocent with curly hair and a cheeky grin. Pat just exists in a grey area where rules and laws simply don’t apply and he gets away with it as well. Pat is a master of the Small Crime. But now Pat is in trouble. Not with a grownup - they are easy enough to avoid. Pat has crossed the Rubicon and inadvertently started a gang war with a teenager. You see, Julie Poohly is on to him and she’s as mean as they come. Pat has managed to antagonise the biggest bully in East London by nicking her bike and she’s well miffed. It will take all of Pat’s chaos super powers to stay ahead of her and her gang. Small Crimes is a tale of innocence, exploding toilets and a bit of gang warfare. Pat, his best mate and all the other kids in Khartoum Road are about to have the summer of their life.

Keno Rehle: The writing is - for my matter - fluent and feels smooth. The story is creative in an absurdly witty way yet somehow does not feel out of place. Mistakes in grammar and punctuation are just subtle and not too noticeable.(Apologies for writing minimalisticly.)

Of course, it is highly exaggerated, but I get the feeling that it may well be linked to the truth, even though it is far away from it. The fact th...
