A harrowing tale of Molly and her mother, a drug addict who uses her daughter as currency to buy her drugs from some rather unsavoury characters.  The pair flee London and head to Dartmoor and reside in a remote, neglected house with Lester.  Molly has to be Lester’s ‘good girl’  in order for them to stay and Molly’s mum continues to out her drug habit before her daughters safety.  Molly escapes and explores the moor and comes cross the ‘map’ lady who shows her different parts of the moor.  Things come to ahead one evening, when Lester is throwing a ‘party’ and Molly is the party entertainment.  Soon Molly’s life takes a unprecedented turn but there is no happy ever after for her.
A fast paced book full of plot and implied abused.  Quite a dark thriller, and not usual twist or happy ending.
