The inspirational true story of one woman's fight to survive on the streets of London

I, Lorna Tucker, have lived a life that most you can't even begin to imagine...

'You need to read this book' MICK JAGGER

'Unflinching and unforgettable' VOGUE

'An essential read showcasing the resilience of the human spirit' JUANO DIAZ

I have lived in London's piss-soaked streets, I have lived with the sweet embrace of heroin, I have lived when I should have died.

I have lied, I have thieved, I have stripped, I have tricked, I have loved, I have fallen, I have survived.

I could be your daughter, your mother, your lover - I could be you.

Come to hell and back with me.

AN EYE-OPENING, PERSONAL ACCOUNT OF FEMALE HOMELESSNESS, FROM ONE OF BRITAIN'S MOST EXCITING FILM-MAKERS
