NOT ALL RELATIONSHIPS LEAD TO GOOD THINGS - WILL SHE BE ABLE TO FIND HER WAY THROUGH?
What's a nice girl like Lorna Wright doing with an East End bad boy like Richie Clayton?
The world is changing and London is swinging: it's the 1960s. But in the East End the docks are closing and life will never be the same.
Lorna Wright is a nice girl, but Richie Clayton is bad news: a violent thug who will stop at nothing to climb his way to the top of the East End underworld. The more Lorna gets mixed up in his ugly, brutal world, the more she finds herself in trouble too.
There are plenty of people who'd like to see Richie stopped. So when, after a terrible row with Lorna, Richie is found murdered, the finger of accusation points in all sorts of directions...
From the author of My East End, a dramatic saga of how an innocent young girl finds herself entangled in the 1960s East End underworld
