Publisher's summary was accurate, the story moved along nicely. Well worth a credit and a decent new series.

Brilliant
A wonderful story that makes you feel close to the characters.
Narrated beautifully too, Frances Barber is a master at playing characters on screen and has delivered her acting skills just brilliantly in this story.
Thoroughly enjoyed this book and shall be buying more by Maureen Carter.
Unsubtle and narration all wrong!
What disappointed you about Working Girls?
I found it to be just too unsubtle. It lacked any complexity. In addition, the narration was close to received pronunciation and street slang delivered in that doesn't work at all. Sadly, I will return it.
