Opis

Jack Woodfield has it all; brains, brawn, and sightly bulges. He works hard, and plays harder. But this modern, vaguely metrosexual man hails from a long line of hunky barrow boys who pawned their principles in exchange for the perfect six-pack, selling their souls to the family's mysterious familiar in the process. Despite this Jack has ditched West Ham United, Barking market, and especially his belligerent brother Jamie; any gossip about ancient uncles and their paranormal romances, 'naughty nuns' or 'doomed debutantes' are cobblers as far as Jack is concerned. But over Jack's shoulder lurks his hell-raising cousin, Hayden 'the lad' Woodfield, the willing slave of that mysterious familiar, Minty Hardcore; her predilection for rough trade could screw up Jack's prospects for promotion and a cosmopolitan, politically correct life rather royally... 'Jack and the Lad' spans the sordid underbelly of high society's debutante culture in the 18th century, the tyranny of the Kray Twins in swinging 60s Bethnal Green, before slamming on the brakes to explode in present-day Barking and the City of London's Square Mile.
