Read The Business Storyline:

Love your family. Hate your enemies. Know the business.
Imelda Dooley is scared. Really scared. She's played hard and fast and now she's been caught.
She's pregnant and she's on her own. Her father, not a man to mess with,
will see that somebody pays for this. And it's not going to be her. So
Imelda Dooley tells a lie. A lie that literally causes murders.
When Mary Dooley's husband is killed in the night's events, she knows
she must graft to keep the family afloat. And she does, becoming a name
in her own right. But she still has to watch her daughter's life spiral
into a vicious, hate-fuelled cycle of drugs and prostitution.
Caught up in the carnage that is Imelda's existence are Mary's adored
grandchildren, Jordanna and Kenny. Pretty little Jordanna isn't yet
three and she already knows far too much. All the little girl can do is
look after her baby brother, Kenny, and try not to draw unwanted
attention to herself.
Set in the heart of London's criminal world, from the tail-end of the
seventies up until the present-day, THE BUSINESS is a gritty,
disturbing and haunting tale of drugs, prostitution and a young girl's
fight for survival - against all the odds.
