Synopsis

It is 1962 and Daisy Lane, whose husband Kenny is in jail for robbery, lives above the family cafe which she runs. But Daisy is not alone. Also sharing the house with her is Eddie, Kenny's older brother - a handsome, resourceful villain with a streak of viciousness that leads him to commit terrifying acts of violence to get his way. There is Suze, a pretty 16-year-old, who helps in the cafe. Raped by her stepfather, Suze is petrified of sex and a magnet for predatory men. And there is Vera the prostitute, Daisy's lodger, friend and confidante - a tart with a heart who is nobody's fool.
Set against the heady backdrop of the early swinging Sixties, when the power of the Krays extended far beyond the criminal underworld of South London, Trust Nobody is full of characters that leap off the page straight into your heart. You will love Daisy and Vera and not be able to resist Eddie in this gritty, violent, sexy and unforgettable story about a woman caught between two men.
