Queenie Doyle ruled over south London gangland and her four daughters—Frankie, Mags, Sharon and Roxie—with an iron fist. When Queenie´s death brings the Doyle empire crashing down, the sisters grow apart. Eldest sister Frankie has a lot of love to give but her dreams are stifled when she becomes a mother to the girls at age 18. Crazy Mags committed the ultimate rebellion against her upbringing by joining the police force. Baby Roxie is living it up on the Costa Del Sol, but she leaves a string of dead men behind her. Sharon marries Monty and settles down to raise a family and to live a perfect life in suburbia until Monty dies in mysterious circumstances. As the Doyle sisters pull together to find out what really happened to Monty they enter a world of drugs, dirty money, and clean guns, risking their own safety to deal out their own brand of justice.

About the Author:
Lee Martin is the author of Gangsters Wives.
From Publishers Weekly:
This banal London-based crime-family saga from British author Martin (Gangster Wives) follows the four foul-mouthed Doyle sisters through corny tribulations that would make the most hardened soap opera heroines blush. Frankie, the oldest, left to parent her sisters after their mother dies of neglected breast cancer, weeps her way through her sister Sharon's abrupt widowhood and suicide. Rebellious Mags, a policewoman suspended for shooting the wrong bloke, investigates the suspicious death of Sharon's husband, a petty crook, in between invigorating snorts of cocaine and raunchy interludes with a hunky detective inspector. Roxie, the luscious youngest, goes on the lam after bumping off an inconvenient boyfriend in Spain. Vapid prose ("That night they dined in style, booked into a grand hotel and made love for hours") goes hand in hand with an improbable plot and paper-thin characters.
