title: Portsea Daughters : Tales from Edwardian Portsmouth
author: Lil, Pompey
description: Charlie is a workhouse kid. Well, he spent a couple of weeks in that Portsea institution. He couldn’t stand the regulations and absconded. The gang live by the same rules – Charlie's. Mr Price to you, or as he now likes to be called, Sir. He's charming, handsome, rich, and powerful – bloody ruthless. He is a rule unto himself. He named his daughter Queenie – after all, she is Pompey royalty. He runs his borough with ruthless efficiency. Charlie Price has two sides. Nice and loyal or mean and nasty. You choose which side you are on. Lil chose. She fell in love with him – silly cow.
