- DANGEROUS LADY
THE GRAFT
Nick Leary couldn’t say what kept him awake that night. When he heard footsteps downstairs, his instinct was to fight. But what happened was the start of something he could not stop . . .
THE TAKE
Families should stick together, but behind closed doors, jealousy and betrayal fester until everyone’s life is infected. For the Jacksons, loyalty cannot win out. In their world everyone is on the take.
CLOSE
Patrick Brodie and Lily Diamond are determined their children will have everything they didn’t. But when the unthinkable happens, Lily is left on her own in a world where you can trust no one and where your sins will find you out . . .
FACES
Danny Cadogan’s ruthlessness doesn’t stop at his front door. He rules his wife Mary and his children, with an iron will – and his fists. But for a Face at the top of his game, there’s only one way to go. Down . . .
THE BUSINESS
When Mary Dooley’s husband is killed, she has to watch her daughter Imelda’s life spiral into a vicious, hate-fuelled cycle of drugs and prostitution, whilst her adored grandchildren fight for survival – against all the odds.
HARD GIRLS
When a prostitute’s body is found lifeless, mutilated and brutally raped, DCI Annie Carr and retired DCI Kate Burrows are determined to put the killer behind bars. But whoever it is won’t be easily caught. And they are just warming up . . .
THE FAMILY
Phillip Murphy worships his mum and loves his wife Christine with a vengeance. To Phillip, family is everything. But he has rules, and he expects loyalty. Once you’re in the family, you’re in it for life.
THE FAITHLESS
To the outside world, Cynthia Tailor is someone to envy. But behind closed doors, her family see her for the cruel woman she really is . . . and, for her children, the pain she causes them will stay with them forever.
THE LIFE
Gangster brothers Peter and Daniel Bailey rule London’s East End and it seems that no one can touch them. Daniel’s daughter Tania is shielded from the Life, but when a terrible tragedy occurs, she is forced to make an irrevocable choice about her future . . .
REVENGE
No one would dare challenge Michael Flynn. He rules his criminal underworld empire with an even but fierce hand. Then the unthinkable happens – and Michael must learn that without the shedding of blood there can be no forgiveness of sins.
THE GOOD LIFE
Cain Moran wants Jenny Riley more than he has ever wanted anyone or anything before in his life. Jenny cares nothing for Cain’s hard-man reputation – she just wants to be with him. But Cain is not a free man and there are greater trials ahead than any of them can foresee.
