The Pact

By Roberta Kray

Book Overview

or 34-year-old Eve Weston, life couldn't get much bleaker. Her con artist father recently committed suicide and her younger brother Terry was sent to jail. Then she lost her job too, because a close friendship with married solicitor Henry Baxter was misconstrued as an affair. Having temporarily moved away from London, she's now living in her father's old flat in one of the shabbier parts of Norwich. On a visit to see Terry, Eve is shocked to find him battered and bruised. He refuses to tell her who has done it or why. Eve begins to have serious fears that her brother won't survive his sentence, and in desperation she turns to another prisoner, a dangerous-seeming individual called Martin Cavelli. They make a secret pact: if Cavelli protects Terry then she will pay whatever it costs.

All The Action You Could Want!!

Roberta Kray was born in the seaside resort of Southport in 1959. She worked in publishing and media research in London for 15 years. In 1996 she met Reggie Kray and they married the following year. She currently lives in Norfolk and she has a previous best selling novel `The debt.' Eve is the daughter of a conman, the recently deceased Alexander Weston. 34-year-old Eve has been around her father long enough to know a good deal when she sees one and the one she is thinking of is not even close. With her brother being worked over in jail she has little option. She has got to organise some protection for him, otherwise he is going to end up on a slab. The powerful con Cavelli seems to be the answer to her prayers, but can he be trusted and more importantly what price is he going to exact? She knows that she may be biting off more than she can chew with this one. A forced entry followed by a vicious assault soon makes Eve question her choice. Cavelli is leading her straight down the path to oblivion. Is she holding hands with the devil himself . . .
