“This thrilling, lyrical, original book switches between verse and prose. It stars a loyal and ambitious lead character who we were rooting for from the very start. Molly is gutsy with a strong sense of justice and represents everything that is good about her generation.”
~Sarah
Living on an East London council estate has its worries - and life for 15-year-old Molly hasn't always been easy. But she has a dream to be a boxer just like her older brother Denny. When he agrees to train her, she couldn't be more excited. But one night everything changes. There's an assault outside the boxing club, Denny's nowhere to be found and the police are after him. Molly must prove her brother's innocence and delve into the underbelly of East London, and her family history, where new and old secrets are revealed...
