About this listen

It’s Shoreditch, London, in the mid 1950s, and Frank Pollock is fixer-in-chief for the Posties, the descendants of paupers thrown out of the East End’s Old Nichol slum half a century earlier. Led by their Director, the Posties fought back to commandeer wharves and warehouses. Frank is helped out by Elsie, who heads a team of shoplifters by day, and pines for a husband by night.

Fast-forward to the rapidly gentrifying Shoreditch of today where semi-retired Nick Carter is asked by his friend Julie Fry to spy on her husband Tom. Nick discovers that Julie’s other half belongs to the still hidden world of the Posties, with their intriguing tattoos and suspect property. Nick faces his own dilemma just as the days of the Posties may be numbered.
