The Pavement Gardener (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780957599574)

Against the backdrop of the global economic downturn, the need for work brings Mara from Latvia to South East London. Working for Spencer in the Hungry Londoner Café is not easy-he's a sleazy, woman-hating, low-life with no moral compass and a bad gambling habit and, when he goes a step too far, Mara tries to think of a way to get even.

Callum is a young Irish gardener, working in London. A handsome, enigmatic figure, his solitary efforts to bring beauty into people's consciousness captivates Mara. Fate and unstoppable chemistry throw Mara and Callum together and start a chain of events that they quickly lose control of.

The story takes them ever deeper into the murky and dangerous world of urban fight gambling and challenges Callum's understanding of who he is and what he wants from life. The gripping conclusion reveals the unpredictability of human nature and how revenge can become a double edged sword. A story of intrigue, human frailty, modern love and self-realisation.
