Publisher's Synopsis

While carrie foster was still in school she stole money to finance illicit trips into london. These expeditions were innocent enough - until someone with his own secrets taught her another way of making money. Her marriage to gordon matthews, an older man who claims his first wife left him, provides a brief period of contentment. But soon, bored with marriage, uneasy about the story of gordon's first wife, carrie begins making secret trips back to the streets of the west end, searching for money - and excitement. In this disturbing and suspenseful novel, the dead cry out for revenge and the living cannot escape the consequences of the past. NOT UK/OM
