Make Us Traitors
The O'Donnell family ran their manor in the East End with a fist of iron, keeping control of their gambling, prostitution and protection rackets. But gang warfare brought horror and sorrow with it, losing Catherine O'Donnell her life and finally bringing murder and violence into the heart of the family. Now, Eileen O'Donnell is out of prison and her sons Luke and Brendan are running the show. It ought to be time for some peace and quiet. Instead, the trouble is only just beginning.
