The third novel in the very popular East End “Her vivid, flint-edged picture of London’s East End in the sixties leaps off the page with its sardonic dialogue and sharply realized characters . . . you’ll find it very difficult to put this one down.”— Crime Time
Haven’t read a book in this style for a long time. I much prefer this author to Martina Cole, who I find incredibly repetitive. I haven’t read the other books in this series but will do at some point although it can easily be read as a standalone book. I think I’m probably over this type of story, but there’s no doubt she’s a very good author.
This is a follow on of the sagas of the O Donnell and Kessler families. After the deaths of the main O Donnell men the Kessler's run most of London, but unknown to them Brendan O Donnell's daughter Lisa comes onto the scene calling herself Taylor so nobody realises the connection. I did enjoy this book but don't think it's quite as good as the two previous ones of the series.
