He wants her to go to Leeds, to get an important client's son off an assault charge.But Leeds is in Liberty's past. And once she hits town, the past slaps her in the face... and pulls her back into what she worked so hard to leave behind.

And how far will any of them go to do what they think is right?'The Leeds setting is every bit as gritty as Kray's East End . . . hard as nails!' Peterborough Telegraph
