Description
Alice Keiver's life is marked by hardship and struggle. Growing up in one of North London's toughest areas, she faces a bleak future with her baby sister as her only hope for escape. Her father, Jack, works tirelessly to provide for his family, but their circumstances are constantly dashed by the cruel hand of fate. The Keiver household is a battleground, where the weight of poverty and abuse hangs heavy in the air. Alice's aunt Fran suffers at the hands of her husband Jimmy, and the family's patience wears thin. As tensions rise, one thing becomes clear: revenge will be sweet. This powerful coming-of-age story explores the harsh realities of life on the streets, where the vulnerable are often left to fend for themselves.
