The heir to Martina Cole's crown with a story of murder, the underworld, violence and treachery.
It's 1983 and Stephanie Crouch's life is dull. She is desperate to escape the run-down, pokey council house she shares with her overbearing family, but at fourteen years old she has nowhere to go.
When Stephanie meets East End wide-boy Barry, his cockney charm and quick tongue soon have her head over heels in love. Finally Stephanie feels like her dreary life is on the up. But too young to control their fate, Stephanie and Barry are torn apart when he is whisked away to Spain by his family. Lonely and heartbroken Stephanie turns to Barry's childhood friend Wayne for comfort, and their friendship soon blossoms into romance, leaving Barry fuming and promising revenge....

"Loved this book. Wasn't sure what to expect but had an idea it would be similar to Martina Cole/Mandasue Heller ......,it was even better. Loved the Jeremy Kyle characters, the 80's reliving and the comical factors of this book. Can't wait to read more of Kim Chambers !" — Beth (5 out of 5 stars)
