“A fantastic first novel from new author L M Bush”
Five Star Review on Amazon By Das
A fantastic first novel from new author L M Bush.
Tells the story of how a young man’s life is shaped by events as he grows up in the East End of London through the 80’s. There is a generous helping of everything from, Love to Lust to betrayal, violence and suspense. I started reading it on Sunday and simply could not put it down until I finished it 2 days later.
The lead character Tony is, in equal measures, both a lovable rogue and a violent thug, but when push comes to shove you can’t help but root for him.
I am looking forward to the second part of the trilogy so that I can continue to follow Tony’s exploits and see where the author takes us next.
About the Author
Born in 1975 in East London, I was the youngest in a two point four loving family. I was just your Joe average. Going through schooling and adolescent years I was a normal teenage girl, whose mother may have threatened to throttle on numerous occasions and I never quite managed to drive my parents to drink that much!! Between now and then, I have been busy training in the art of grooming (hairdressing and beautician to be precise), worked for top London magazines in advertising, struck a pose for a camera lens, and helped run several businesses. However, writing novels had never occurred to me to be something which I would spend my time doing. I married an amazing man and we have an amazing son, who both inspire me beyond belief and make me laugh uncontrollably at times. So look at me now… I am a wife, a mother, a business woman, a model (although I m not sure which one takes up most of my time) and now I can officially add novelist to my ever-growing CV list.
Good book. Was disappointed that it was to be continued. Can’t wait for the second book.
