A Kid Called Billy

In 1960s Reading, ten-year-old Billy McCarty's life changes when his aunt arrives from America with an unexpected gift: a denim jacket stitched with the name Billy the Kid.

Sharing the same name with the legendary outlaw sparks something in Billy, inspiring him to lead his own gang of mischief-makers. From chasing ghosts in abandoned mansions to skinny-dipping escapades gone embarrassingly wrong, Billy, Pinky, and Porky find trouble wherever they go.

But beneath their adventures, Billy carries the weight of loss and a growing awareness of something bigger guiding his path. As strange coincidences start to shape his journey, Billy begins to wonder if destiny has a hand in his story after all.

A warm, nostalgic adventure set in 1960s England, A KID CALLED BILLY is a coming-of-age tale full of humour, heart, and a dash of the extraordinary.
