Adultery, murder and dangerous love collide in Jessie Keane’s gritty debut novel.

For longer than she cares to remember Annie Bailey has lived in the shadow of her older sister Ruthie. Now Ruthie has her hands on Max Carter, the much feared head of the Carter family and a top class villain.

Seducing Max wasn't a problem, but the guilt, shame and anger of rejection afterwards was.

Thrown onto the streets Annie finds herself living with Celia, a wayward aunt with a shocking secret. As the months pass Annie's resourceful nature sees her mature and carve out a life for herself, albeit not legal. But if you play with fire, you can expect to get burned and her lavish new lifestyle and connections may be about to come crashing down around her.

Annie has unwittingly placed herself between two rival gangs and upset too many people, and these kind of people don't forget. But as everyone knows, Annie Bailey is no ordinary woman.

4.3*

I really enjoyed this book and have become a fan of the author. I will definitely be reading many more of her books. I’m quite strict with my scoring of books and I rarely give 5* because I save that for only my absolute favourites and books that were perfect in my eyes…I think 3* out of 5 is still a reasonable and respectful score for a book I’ve enjoyed but maybe feel something little was missing or there was one thing I didn’t like about it that lowered the score for me. So for me to score this book as 4.3* should tell you how much I enjoyed it!

This book is well worth your time,,it is the first of the Annie Carter serious which boasts 6 books and if any of them are half as good as this one,then I'll be glued to my kindle for a long time.I loved Martina Cole books and someone told me Jessie Keane wrote a lot like her so I decided to give her a try and I was NOT sorry,,I've read quite a few of Jessie Keanes books now and have enjoyed everyone of them so go on do yourself a favour and start with Dirty Game you won't regret it i PROMISE YOU

Dour and depressing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 July 2021

I can see this developed in to a successful series, well done. However, I found it seriously hard work, none of the characters inspired me, I was more intrigued than invested with the main character, curious to know how she would dig herself out of the hole she was in, she didn't. She's still there. 60's London criminal gangs, all corruption and nastiness. Very well written, the story blisters along from one disaster to the next, a modicum of success is quickly destroyed by one circumstance or another. Won't be following this up.

I read this book a while ago and gave it to a friend along with the other two in the series, which are just such great reads. So much so, that I have bought them again for my husband, who has read the first one, Dirty Game over the weekend, and he's not a great reader! He can't wait to get stuck into the next one. These books have you gripped for the first page and they are so fabulously written. Annie and Max are great characters that you get to know and love so easily. If you've read this one don't forget to get Black Widow and Scarlet Woman too. There's a follow up later, called Playing Dead, which is fab too. Can't wait for Nameless - out 30th August 2012!
