Gritty. Gripping. Unforgettable.
Just before Danny Cadogan's fourteenth birthday, his father
leaves. Having drunkenly run up a gambling debt he cannot pay, Big Dan
Cadogan takes the easy way out.
He leaves behind his wife and children to face the wrath of the men sent
to collect the debt. Determined to protect his mother, brother and
sister, something changes in Danny and, overnight, he turns into a young
man set on making his way in a violent and dangerous world. He becomes a
Face. Not just a Face, but the most feared Face in the Smoke. Out for
all he can get. At any cost. But Danny's ruthlessness on the streets of
London doesn't stop at his front door. He rules his wife, Mary, and his
children, with an iron will - and his fists. But if Mary breaks her
silence, it could shake Danny's criminal empire; right to the very core.
And for a Face at the top of his game, there's only one way to go.
Down. Because, after all, debts can be paid without money.Set in the
heart of London's criminal gangland, from the seventies right up to the
present day, FACES is gritty, gripping and utterly unforgettable.
