Foreword. Some considerable time ago, I spent several months working in London. For a large part of my life until then, I had regarded it as s ‘struggle’. But here I was, being very well paid to do a job I thoroughly loved. What I encountered in London, became somewhat of a ‘body shock’.
Witnessing OTT affluence and what bordered on absolute squalor in close proximity, made me realize I had been up until then, in a somewhat ‘sheltered’ and benign environment in the North East.
Both this tale, and several others, is informed on what I witnessed, and occasionally intervened in.
So, set in London, this is a story about a man whose very existence is defined by his care for those both trodden and predated upon by the greedy, unscrupulous and perverted members of our society. By far the most vulnerable and easiest to prey upon are inevitably women, and he has made it his life’s work to right as many wrongs as he can. He has set no limits on himself regarding his ‘mission’, other than to protect those nearest and dearest to him.
