Amber: An absolutely gripping and gritty crime thriller (The Working Girls)

This book broke my heart, to think and believe that people are living like this in this day and age is so depressing and mind blowing. I know it's not a true story but based on all the help Heather had from all the agencies involved in helping and coping with these poor victims is heart breaking indeed. Reading about present day Amy or Amber as she became, and the 6yr old Amy and the abuse she was subjected to by paedophiles instigated by her own mother is brutal. This book really affected me , it's a very hard hitting story definitely not for the faint hearted.A good one never the less.

The working girls in ManchesterThis is the 4th book by Heather Burnside I have enjoyed them all & this one is another great readThe awful life of Amy her street life being AmberCircumstances change for her mother, brother & herself when her father diesThey have to leave their beautiful house & move to a council estateAmy & her mother Loretta have to earn & there the story tells of the heartache, the misery, the violence, drugs & boozeAmy’s innocent sold to put food on the table

This working girls trylogy of books gets better as it goes along and this o amber Is another brilliant read the story just holds you on the edge to reach the end all the different characters have a different story to tell this trylogy is well worth a read if you like these kind of books and if you do you won't be disappointed they are that good ok.D.l.purkiss?

Ambers story and how she got into prostitution is truly shocking!!You see her childhood past in detail alongside her present adult life as chapters flit between Amy the child and Amber the adult. Still living at home with her mum (guess who lol). Great read!!

Another great book in this series from Heather Burnside. It touches on some very sad issues... not just prostitution and alcoholism, but child abuse too. A painful read, but Burnsude makes you empathise with the characters too. Looking forward to the next one.
