'Happiness had never been something she'd looked for. A quiet day
with no insults or wallops, that was the best she could imagine.'
London, 1920s Kate Goss lives in a freezing cold garret, bullied by
her aunt and cousins. She dreams of being rescued by her handsome
father. No one knows where he is, or what he is doing, just that he
is sure to come back a rich man. By the time Kate is seventeen, she
has learnt to cope alone. When her aunt throws her out, she finds a
job as a cleaner in the Bermondsey Bookshop and Reading Room. Here
she will discover a world she never knew existed. But trouble is
never far away and long-held secrets are about to burst into the
open, ensnaring her in a web of lies and violence. Will she ever be
able to escape? Praise for The Bermondsey Bookshop: 'Poignant and
intensely emotional' BOOKISH JOTTINGS 'A fabulous, fascinating
read' VANESSA FELTZ 'I simply couldn't put it down' THE BOOKBAG 'A
must-read' OK MAGAZINE
