"Gritty, Witty!
Loved it!"A short story about a young, naïve girl who left her quiet home town in the south of England with an older man to start an exciting new life and career in London.
Set in the mid 1990's when domestic mobile phones only worked inside London in the UK, the London Eye wasn't on the skyline yet and all the offices had bomb curtains.
Things become quite turbulent at times, almost explosive. At one point she even has to flee London altogether, fearing for her life after already having had a gun pointed at her head. It's not all bad though... "A gritty, honest and surprising account of a young woman's days in an unfamiliar world. Congratulations on a refreshing short story. Will definitely be recommending this book!" Emma Cooper
