Tourists dawdling, chancers skulking, addicts shuffling, sex workers strutting, punters prowling, businessmen striding, the homeless and the lost. Down Wardour Street, ducking onto Dean Street, sweeping into L'Escargot, darting down quiet back alleyways, skirting dumpsters and drunks, emerging on to raucous main roads, fizzing with energy and riotous with life.On a corner, sits a large townhouse, the same as all its neighbours. But this building hosts a teeming throng of rich and poor, full from the basement right up to the roof terrace. Precious and Tabitha call the top floors their home but it's under threat; its billionaire-owner Agatha wants to kick the women out to build expensive restaurants and luxury flats. Men like Robert, who visit the brothel, will have to go elsewhere. Those like Cheryl, who sleep in the basement, will have to find somewhere else to hide after dark. But the women won't go quietly. Soho is their turf and they are ready for a fight."--Publisher. 650 0 $a Social classes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social stratification $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Interpersonal relations $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Neighbors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Real estate development $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Property $x Moral and ethical aspects $v Fiction. 651 0 $a London (England) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Social problem fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 13 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314022056.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010022424.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909063634.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20210806010655.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20210723014055.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722064300.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20210713013956.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20210602011858.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20210602011640.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210518010406.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210504015723.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210504014016.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210424010112.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=56BDA7CCA4C211EB9FC78A1843ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
