Horrors of the Underworld

When Tess was just eleven years old, her own mother sold her to a rich elderly man – Grace ran a brothel in Croydon and forced her young daughter into a terrifying world of sex and depravity.

Dangerous criminals visited the brothel every day and Tess was exposed to things no little girl should see. A timid child who longed for her mother's love, she grew up in a world of unimaginable horrors with no one to turn to. Her mother ensured that Tess followed her footsteps and she later opened a brothel herself – looking after her girls and running it as cleanly as she could.

Along the way she encountered some fascinating characters, including Christine Keeler, the Kray twins, Myra Hindley, and well-known actors and politicians.

Amazingly since the horrors of her past, Tess has turned her life around. This is a shocking and heart-wrenching insight into a criminal underworld and recovery from the ultimate betrayal.

Teri whitehouse Rating: 5 Unputdownable A very sad story beautifully told, it must have taken so much courage to write this story. The title was very apt.
