Mr. Conaghan's first book, "The Boy Who Made it Rain", is being published on Friday, 3rd June by Sparkling Books, a publisher based in Southampton. According to the Sparkling Books website, it is a book for older teens and adults. The publisher summarises the book as follows:
"At only sixteen Clem's world is turned upside down. His Willy-Loman-like father, a travelling salesman and a loser, is transferred from Eastbourne to Glasgow and along with him go Clem and his meek accommodating mother. But Glasgow is rough and Clem's posh English accent is not well-accepted in the sink school he attends. And he's a brilliant scholar. He soon becomes the target for McEvoy's group of thugs for whom slashing faces is the most important ambition in their depraved lives."
