THE RUNAWAY has been adapted into a major six-part drama for television

THE RUNAWAY: You may have seen the TV. That doesn't mean you know the full story.

The past will always catch up with you...

THE RUNAWAY by No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author Martina Cole is an unputdownable thriller of corruption and violence and was adapted for television with an all-star cast including Alan Cumming, Jack O'Connell and Keith Allen.

'Martina tells it like it really is' - Sun.

You can't run for ever.

All that prostitute's daughter Cathy Connor and drunkard's son Eamonn Docherty want to do is escape their grim childhoods in London's East End. And soon events turn so dangerous they are left with no choice but to flee. Cathy to the red lit streets of Soho, Eamonn to the high ranks of gangland New York.

Now she's a hardened survivor, he's Gotham's most ruthless villain, and their paths are about to cross once again...

You might have seen THE RUNAWAY and THE TAKE on TV - but that certainly doesn't mean you know what happens in the books!
