He left in a blaze of glory. Now he's back-and the village hasn't forgotten.

Faded punk legend Nate 'Nasher' Newell never planned on returning to Bramwick- he only wants to lay low until he can return to his life in London. But the brass band he left behind-and the people he hurt-aren't so easy to escape.

Rosie thought she was done with Nate. Once fearless and full of fire, she's now barely holding things together: a crumbling marriage, a struggling community centre, and a band on the brink. Nate's return is the last thing she needs... especially when old sparks start to reignite.

As the band fights to survive, secrets come to light, loyalties are tested, and Nate must face the music. Can he make amends before it's too late, or will the ghosts of the past drown out any chance of redemption?

Blood and Brass is a poignant, powerful tale of second chances, small-town drama, and the healing power of music.
