From the authors of the bestselling Coyle Trilogy comes a fantastic new title, its origins based on fact. At one time 17 Danube Street, located in the city's genteel New Town, was the most notorious address in Edinburgh. For over 30 years the Georgian townhouse operated as a hugely successful brothel. If you want to read about crime and debauchery from two of Scotland's biggest partners in crime, you'll love this. Danube Street tells the fictional tale of notorious Madame, Stella Gold, and her mission to turn the infamous number 17 Danube St into Edinburgh's most exclusive brothel. The house, situated in one of Edinburgh's most exclusive streets, was known the length and breadth of the country; a magnet for red-blooded males, single or otherwise. Danube Street was always the first port of call when Merchant or Naval ships docked in Leith, and was the attraction, never to be missed by visiting clergymen of every denomination. Stella Gold began life far from the bright lights of the city. Born Agnes McLeod, she was reared in the wilds of Ayrshire. The only daughter of a tenant farmer, she endured a harsh, rugged upbringing. Now, although the darling of Edinburgh's glitterati, she finds herself the victim of a vendetta by the city's most dangerous and violent criminal brothers,and a corrupt Chief of Police. Survival was a constant challenge which Stella thought she had under control. How wrong could she be?
