In Face, Zephaniah tells the story of Martin Turner, a confident joker and leader of the 'Gang of Three'. An accident in a stolen car leaves Martin unconscious in hospital. When he wakes up he realises that the accident has left his face severely scarred. Now, Martin is on the receiving end of people's prejudices and his life has changed forever.
