Two teenage girls from opposite sides of the tracks in 1960s
Midlands England are forced into prostitution in this engrossing
tale of loss, liberty, and love. Weep at the relationship between
clever Janet and spoiled Priscilla, as their handsome, young
English teacher, Mr Edwards - and his corrupting father - become
embroiled in their tortuous journeys. But then a smart heroine Tara
fatefully enters the fray on a secret detective mission. Dramatic
and topical events include a city-slum killing, police malfeasance,
newspaper-business bribery, emotional blackmail, destitute
homelessness, and a mountaineering adventure. This saga combines a
socio-political struggle by the under-privileged against
repression, with both feminine and asexual insights into love, to
produce a thought-provoking, yet stylishly old-fashioned, romantic
rollercoaster.
