"The first in a dramatic new series about the lives, loves and losses of the families who live and work in and around the Turnbury Buildings, a crumbling Victorian tenement in the heart of London's East End. Hardworking Nell is married to Stephen. She has hidden the abuse she has suffered at his hands from her children, although most of the neighbours realize what's going on. The Tanners, an older couple in Number 56, think she must be asking for it, but nineteen-year-old Martin, eldest son of the Lovells at Number 57, has always admired Nell. When he sees Stephen attacking Nell, he can stand back no longer, but his actions have repercussions for all the families..."--Back cover.
