Summary

Peter and Adele Robinson were dragged up by an alcoholic, violent father and a beaten mother, their childhood in Manchester preparing them only for a life of crime. Adele studies hard and makes a success of her life whilst Peter immerses himself in the murky underworld of crime, and their once close bond breaks. However, when Adele is in danger, there's only one person she can turn to...her brother.

the level of detail is fantastic!

I loved listening the this while in hospital, it was read so well by Emma Swan and the descriptions at time make you feel like your there.
I can't wait to listen to the next one!
