About the book

Lamb to the Slaughter

“No love is stronger than… the dear love of comrades.”

Early one morning, two handymen arrive at an all night convenience store near Seven Dials. Minutes later, the shopkeeper is dead, leaving a widow and two children.

The murder sets off a chain of events that draws together a rag-tag bunch of comrades who are determined on revenge against police corruption and the criminal underworld.

For Alex Martin, it’s an opportunity to put his life back on track. But it takes two tough women to move things forward.

Set against the gritty backdrop of late 1980s London and Brighton, this is a raw, unflinching exploration of solidarity, betrayal and the price of fighting for what you believe in, even when the lines between right and wrong are blurred.

They’re not fleeing danger: they’re walking towards it.
