Being born into poverty and hardship in 1930s London, Matthew's life was one of relentless struggle. One inadvertent act in defence of his mother would haunt his conscience forever.
Matthew's journey takes him from the poverty of a cold stone granary to the opulence of Mayfair and Kensington Palace Gardens, where he starts a family of his own. Despite working his way to the top of the business world, he remains an outsider to London's elite. He then realises that that same elite has an ugly underbelly. High society was a hot bed of depravity.
Will he correct society's wrongs? Will the man who never succumbed to expectations be able to challenge his own destiny or will he simply accept the futility of it all?
