**********************************************
THE WAR MAY BE LONG OVER BUT LIFE IN SOHO IS ANYTHING BUT CALM...
1956: Lizzy is working in Soho when Peace, the daughter of her employer Bandy Bunion's estranged sister, comes to stay. Peace is a beautiful sixteen-year-old part-Chinese girl who has run away from boarding school and who has no intention of going back.
Having lost her own daughter - Rosie's best friend - to leukaemia two years previously, she feels a special bond with Peace.
She also feels that life has been rather quiet recently; but things are about to change dramatically...
When Peace goes missing a second time, and no one knows where she's gone, it looks as though there's only one thing to do. Lizzy asks TC - her new man and a policeman - to help her find Peace, and the first place they must visit is the dock area in Limehouse...
No Peace for the Wicked paints a picture of 1950s Soho so authentic you feel as though you are there...
