Timberdick worked the pavements of Goodladies Road where the men had bad ideas and the women should have known better. When the local CID loses interest in the murder of a young prostitute, Timbers takes the case on.
It's 1963 and Timbers' First Case challenges more than her powers of deduction. "Real people get murdered by their family and friends. We get killed by everyone else," says one of the girls. As her investigation gathers pace, she feels increasingly worthless and starts to ask herself whether solving the murder will make any difference.
"Fascinatingly original. Full of interesting characters. An array of odd balls gives it almost an Dickensian feel." (Nottingham Evening Post)
"Rave reviews. Already a collectors item." (Shropshire Chronicle)"Based on the grittiness of it all" (Portsmouth News)
