About this ebook
'One of the bad girls of gritty crime' Daily Mirror
Sarah Mullen is a beautiful child who at seven years old is put into care by her drug-addicted mother. Trying to live with the rejection is bad enough, but no one could have prepared her for the pain that was yet to come.
Harry Shaw is the boy that everyone bullies, the kid whose own mother locked him in a cupboard so she wouldn't have to look at his face, and then left him there.
When he meets Sarah for the first time, a friendship is instantly forged. And out of a desire to be loved an alliance is born.
Then into their lives comes Vinnie Walker, a good-looking and calculating thirteen-year-old who will change both their lives forever.

I have read most of the books by Mandasue and this one is one of my favorites. The story has all the content of a fantastic book sex, drugs, gangsters, abuse, brilliant yet again and the ending was far from disappointing if you like her other books and have not yet read this one you are in for a treat.
