Stolen goods, secret dealings and competing loyalties shape a community in which security is fragile and respectable appearances can be misleading. Morrison combines a child's perspective with a hard view of poverty and opportunism in the Victorian East End. Part crime story and part study of a changing dockside neighbourhood, the novel creates a vivid portrait of lives lived close to the law's margins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216421437779,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421120151891,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1085\/2951\/6883\/files\/489.jpg?v=1792703354","url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/the-hole-in-the-wall-folio-society-489","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
