This is the second book in a gritty London gangland series. Each book is about a different sister.
I enjoyed Faith and this book is also a good read.
Are these books anything new? No, but they are a good solid read in a popular genre so well worth a read.

I have to admit I was not a big fan of the first book in this series, 'Faith'.
A well written, exciting London gangland thriller, with some predictable characters.
Not a great read but if you like gangland stuff, then this will keep you very happy.
Thanks to Net Galley and Mountain Leopard press for the chance to read and review..

I enjoyed revisiting the lives of Faith, Hope and Charity in Hope - I read it in one sitting. I didnt feel like there was a lot of conflict in the book and that it ended too quickly. Looking forward to the third instalment

This follows the story of hope, one of 3 Willis sisters she is a madam in a dominatrix house & is living her best life regardless of what's happened in her families past, however this all changes when her boss & best friend chantel is murdered & hope is wrongly convicted for a crime she didn't commit. Can she prove shes innocent & can her friends from the underworld help her?
I love a gangland story & have read quite a few books from various authors of this genre, however, this is the 1st book ive read by Linda Calvey & she did not disappoint once I finished it i went straight onto the kindle store to find more of her books & i bought faith which is actually the 1st story in the three sisters series & i cant wait to start it

a gangland thriller centred around one family. in the first book we got to know one of sisters and now it is Hopes turn.
shes been targeted as being involved in murder and will need all her wits and grit about her to solve and absolve herself from this one. and at least she has the loyalty and criminal empire at her fingerprints for help.
i like how this style is filled with these strong and formidable woman, they may have all gone down different paths but they know what important to them and their family especially when it is needed.
this is a gripping read where risk feels never far away. there is emotional tension throughout and signs that more danger is always on the way. the story progresses quickly and we feel ourselves getting more tense as we go along and even more invested to know whats going to happen and what to be revealed to us next.

Set in 1994 in London's East End, this is the second book in a series centered around a gangland family drama. The story primarily focuses on the three Wills sisters: Faith, Hope, and Charity. After exploring Faith's story in the first book, we now delve into Hope's.
Hope, who is the lead mistress at Chantal's brothel, is wrongly accused and found guilty of murdering Chantal, leading to her imprisonment in Holloway. While the family is preoccupied with uncovering the true culprit, an enemy is drawing ever closer.
This gripping gangland read is filled with twists and turns that will keep you on your toes from the first page to the last.

A great gangland thriller.
Couldn't put it down. It's amazing. Already looking forward to the next installment

Another amazing book, loved it from start to finish, the storyline and plot was second to none, one of the best books I have read in 2025 AAA

The girls are all grown up and still missing their grandmother. The family is deeply involved in the gangland life and Hope is committed for a crime that she didn't commit. I am so looking forward to reading Charity story in the next book. This one is a stand out!!

This is the second book in the series.
Hope has always struggled with knowing just who and what she wants to be so when she becomes a high end mistress at a brothel even though her family are dubious she excels at what she does and is extremely popular.
When her friend and owner of the brothel is murdered Hope is found guilty of being involved and that's when her nightmare begins but Hope is both determined and strong as well as being resourceful and it always helps when your family are part of a criminal empire and where loyalty means everything.
Filled with strong women and the underworld, they inhabit this is a rollercoaster of emotions read perfect for lovers of gritty gangland reads.
Finished in a day, it was so hard to put down.
Recommended.

Brilliant book! I read Linda's first couple of books last year on the off chance, and they were amazing. So when I saw she had a new book out, I needed to read it and ended up getting sunburnt because I was so engrossed.
