London 1966. Lucy Fuller is 18 years old. She likes musicals and make up, and her job is at Winston's Nightclub.

This is the terrifying story of Lucy's time with Ronnie, Reggie and Frank 'The Mad Axeman' Mitchell.
Where Do Little Birds Go? is a colourful, often funny and poignant tale of crime, kidnap and lost innocence in the heart of the 1960s East End.
