Publisher's Synopsis
A younger brother enters the world by means of a full body blood transfusion only to be welcomed into a docklands family within the grip of the Blitz, doodlebugs and rationing. The two siblings emerge from bombed out Paradise Street to take on a London world of dramatic change in the decades ahead. Both wanted to break free and as their sensational lives unfolded, Ray and Phil harboured a shocking secret. Would blood be thicker than water?The scenes from the book take the reader from the Pool of London and Soho to exotic locations in Asia, Africa and Australia back to picturesque English villages in a suspense-filled narrative. If you have endured the 20th and witnessed the 21st century so far, there will be many common themes in the book that you have experienced, but maybe not as scintillating as the lives of the Bristowes of Bermondsey!
