London's East End in the late 1950's is a tough place. George starts work as a counter assistant in a once prestigious 100 year old builder's merchants little realising what he is getting into. Stealing is rife and management ineffectual. He is introduced to corruption, fraud, robbery sex and murder. "Alf spun around and slashed his attacker's face. 'Run George, fucking run'. The man screamed, holding his cheek."---"The sweat started to form on George's brow. The detective fixed him a big smiling gaze and waited. George, about ready to crack, wondered what to do. The bruise on his chest began to hurt. Ah well, he thought, let's get it over with. I might as well admit it."----"Through a hazy fog, Delia looked up as a woman approached the bed. 'Hello Delia, ' the woman murmured. 'Maria's told me so much about you, you're gorgeous.' Unable to resist, Delia lay back sighing as the women removed their clothes and squeezed in next to her."
