Sally Worboyes' gutsy and passionate novels have marked her out as queen of the East End saga. Drawing on her own family history she brings the East End of London vividly to life, from the cobbled streets of the 19th century to the dark alleys of the 1970s. With trademark grit and humour, and a passion that burns into the pages, Sally Worboyes tackles the triumph and tragedies that turn an ordinary life into an extraordinary one. Now with her move to Orion, we can give her the attention she deserves and bring her to an even wider audience.
