Summary

The heir to Martina Cole’s crown with a story of murder, the underworld, violence and treachery.

The Butlers are the kings of the East End.

Vinny and Roy Butler are the apple of their mum’s eye and although Queenie knows they can play dirty, when it comes to family they look after business and make her proud. Nothing and no one can bring the Butler’s down.

But Vinny seems to have crossed the wrong person and his cards are marked. And with the brothers joined at the hip, Roy may just be in the firing line too…

One bloody night sets Vinny on the path of desperate vengeance, but will the Butlers emerge stronger than ever, or is the East End code of honour as good as dead?

The first book in the Butler family saga. The series continues with Payback, The Wronged and Tainted Love.

The trap

I loved this book. It was funny, gritty and kept me wanting more. I am about to start Payback. I think that Annie Aldington did an amazing job in the narration.

What an author.

If you love a good gang land book, this will keep you hooked! You think you have the measure of things but you don't. I think Kimberly Chambers has taken over the no one spot for these kind of books. And if course the wonderful Annie Aldington is a master of her trade. Excellent.

Hard hitting and addictive

This is the first book in the Butler series, I read this first then payback after.

The East end is virtually run by the Butler family who see themselves as gangsters the eldest Vinny is the worst of them all. He will stop at nothing to get what he wants especially when he is hell bent on taking revenge. He has a soft spot and that's his Mum Queenie, he dotes on her. I found most of the characters despicable but it didn't put me off reading it. The way this book ended you just know the story has not ended, I am about to read "Payback" I hope Vinny of all people gets his comeuppance. There is a mixture of violence and some comical moments too. There is so much going on but I don't want to give anything away.

It was Narrated Perfectly

The Story Was As Usual Pretty Good Listened to it in a couple of days it was supposed it was building to be this Amazing Plan ! It Appears She Ran out of Paper, yes it had twists and Turns galore but the End is important Too No Doubt the Sequel Might See The Fruition of The Master Plan I hope so !
