Mind The Gap by Phil Earle

When his best friend Mikey's dad, Vinny dies, we witness one boy's efforts he goes to to help his best mate get over and handle the death better than fighting with their estate's gangster, Trev.
Travelling all cross London we encounter people who didn't like Vinny at all by the end of his life unfortunately, as he was a failed big time actor who never got a big break. Meanwhile, Mikey's mum is a drunk and seems uninterested in her son's life.

Inevitability seems to pull Mikey to the underground not just to find his best friend but there he finds something he needed more than anything.

As death can effect us all in different ways, here we witness the anger and frustration after a close death coming out of Mikey showing how not processing it can hold you back as he just wants a reminder of his dad.

A short to the point read about death and it's aftermath, inspired by a real story which sounds fascinating too.
