The Trap

The heir to Martina Cole’s crown with a story of murder, the underworld, violence and treachery.


The Butlers are the kings of the East End.


Vinny and Roy Butler are the apple of their mum’s eye and although Queenie knows they can play dirty, when it comes to family they look after business and make her proud. Nothing and no one can bring the Butler’s down.


But Vinny seems to have crossed the wrong person and his cards are marked. And with the brothers joined at the hip, Roy may just be in the firing line too…


One bloody night sets Vinny on the path of desperate vengeance, but will the Butlers emerge stronger than ever, or is the East End code of honour as good as dead?


The first book in the Butler family saga. The series continues with Payback, The Wronged and Tainted Love.
