Description
You’ve got to fight for everything when you start with nothing.
Susan Knight has a good life. So she turns a blind eye to the gambling winnings her husband Donny puts through the books at her salon. After all, he needs some way to unwind. At work, he is headteacher at Second Chance, an alternative provision school for kids who have nowhere else to go.
Being the headteacher gives Donny respect, money, and charm. But respect can be lost, money can be stolen and charm can only go so far.
The kids at the school all have a story to tell – as do the staff. Drugs, debt, violence and threat are part of their everyday lives. Donny’s got this far by never playing by the rules. But to keep winning, you have to keep chancing it all. To stay at the top means risking everything.
Susan knows Donny walks a fine line – but if he stumbles too far on the wrong side of the tracks can she stand by him? And for Donny, if he loses Susan, he knows he might be pulled back into the life that’s been waiting for him all this time…

Over the years I’ve read lots of Karen’s books. I even went to watch the drama of Broken youth and know that the work Karen has put in to her writing over the years is proof that following your dreams can work.
This book felt good to read.
I still have Broken Youth and Black tears up there as my favs.
A good read that I wasn’t sure how it going to end. It certainly threw a few surprises in. I never dreamt the outcome.
A few things I’d have like to see even more if but overall a decent read.
Easy and quick to read.
