Payback

The Butler brothers run the East End, and they live by one rule: what goes around comes around. That rule turns on Vinny when the truth about how his cousin died comes out. Friends and relatives start to drop away from him, one after another.

Then something worse happens. Vinny's young daughter Molly, the one bright spot in a violent family, disappears.

The Butlers close ranks to look for her. As they search, old betrayals come back to the surface, and the family's loyalty is pushed as far as it will go.

This is the second book in Kimberley Chambers' Butler family crime saga, following The Trap. The action moves through pubs, lock-ups and rival territories in Essex and East London. It is a gritty crime story with a fast pace, built around revenge, treachery and family ties.

The question driving it is whether a family that is turning on one of its own can hold together long enough to bring a missing child home.
