In this final volume of her memoir, all thoughts of Holy Orders, nursing and office work have been abandoned. Jean Hendy-Harris tells of her life in London in the 1960s, of becoming a show girl, of meeting Stephen Ward and the Kray Twins and of working in a Deviation Brothel just a stone's throw from Harrods Department Store. She also meets Vidar L Estrange, the man destined to have the greatest power and influence over her life and enters into a perilous love affair, the effects of which she finds difficult to overcome. However, a Fortune Teller's predictions turn out to be uncannily correct and eventually Jean becomes an ordinary housewife and mother of three, living in New Zealand.
