On a November evening in London a young woman is rationing a bottle of cheap alcohol... there's nowhere near enough of it to get her through a winter night, but you have to try. She wanders towards Newington Park, where she knows there'll be company and fires - if she's invited close enough to appreciate them. She finds those, but also she finds Stubbs... the lowest of the low, the exploiter of those with nothing left to take.
Entertaining, intriguing, and surprisingly believable.
