Stuart Thorogood's first novel Outcast told the coming-out story of Mark Holly, a 20-year-old working-class boy from a small English town, and captured the authentic feel of provincial life in the 1990s. In Outside In, this talented young writer continues the adventures of Mark and his lover Andrew, as they move to London and get swept up in the frenetic world of the club scene. Mark finds it hard to resist the temptations of drugs and men, so how can their relationship survive in the big city?
