Set in Belfast after the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 2000. Cool Water is the story of the inter-twined relationship between the establishment and street criminals during this period. Donny Campbell is an infamous paramilitary figure, who is a reflection of a violent society. He is sexually repressed and vents his anger and sexual frustration in a cocktail of violence and warped depravity, ultimately hidden in a world where murder and immorality is almost a part of the norm. Donny finds a kindred spirit in Lord Roddy Harding, a man working in the highest echelons of Ulster and London society. Their relationship fractures when Donny becomes a liability as he becomes increasingly unstable and reckless. Harding through the guise of the British state despatches one of its prolific foot soldiers to kill Campbell and maintain a fragile peace through an assassination that will save his reputation and that of the Government.
Pete left school at fourteen and did a variety of jobs, mainly working on building sites, but he has also worked in a crematorium and amusement arcades. After drumming in the group - we went on Top of the Pops and other television shows, made albums and toured Europe and the USA - Pete went to university. He has worked as a Support worker for many years in the community with people with learning disabilities and mental health difficulties. For a while Pete lived in West Belfast, where he worked as a project worker in a victim's group; he worked with people living with trauma caused because of the conflict in Ireland.
Cool Water is a work of fiction for adults that falls into social/political realism, but the detailed insights given to the psychological make-up of the main character make it an original piece of work.
