Publisher's Synopsis

Discover this thrilling exploration of love, life and morality from the internationally bestselling author Lesley Pearse

She defied her parents and married for love . . .


Following her heart, Fifi moves with Dan to London where they rent a seedy flat in Dale Street, Kennington.

Though Fifi must now become acquainted with squalor, she is soon drawn into the goings on behind the shabby front doors of her new neighbours.

But it is the Muckles, at number 11, who are the street's focus. Rumours of criminal depravity and shocking behaviour are rife.

So when Fifi steps in to help their youngest child, she risks the wrath of this frightening family.

Suddenly, not only her marriage and her family, but the lives of all the inhabitants of Dale Street are at the mercy of the immoral Muckles . . .


Praise for Lesley Pearse:

'With characters it is impossible not to care about . . . this is storytelling at its very best'
Daily Mail

'Lose yourself in this epic saga'
Bella

'An emotional and moving epic you won't forget in a hurry'
Woman's Weekly
