Audiobooks
1964. Best friends Sandra and Linda live on a housing estate in Essex. They are mods: they have the clothes, a coffee bar with a juke box and Ready Steady Go! on television on a Friday night. And they have the Corn Exchange, where the best bands play. But the world around them is changing fast. Against the backdrop of the Ban-the-Bomb marches and clashes between mods and rockers, it's time for Linda and Sandra to grow up. As Sandra blindly pursues a marriage proposal from local badboy Danny - who spends more time in jail than out - Linda finds herself dissatisfied and drawn towards causes she knows are worth fighting for. Then she meets enigmatic Sylvie - an ostracised, troubled young woman who has made all the wrong choices, but knows a lot about life outside the estate. Linda finds herself pulled in two directions and must make a choice, unless the trouble she finds makes the choice for her.
