While Carrie Foster was still in school she stole money to finance illicit trips to London. At first these expeditions were innocent enough--until someone with his own secrets taught her another way of making money. Three years later , Carrie's marriage to Gordon Matthews, an older man who claims his first wife left him, provides a brief period of contentment. But soon, bored with marriage and disturbed by the mystery surrounding Gordon's first wife, Carrie begins making secret trips back to streets in the west end, searching for money and excitement. Then she meets Nicholas who lives with his grandmother, and who must not suspect the true reason for her weekly journeys. This is a disturbing and suspenseful novel of subtleties of innocence and guilt, a novel in which the DEAD CRY OUT FOR REVENGE and the living cannot escape the conquences of the past.
