Shadows Over Soho

Shadows Over Soho, is the almost true story of London`s seedy, "Sex for Sale" area within Soho, a smallish community, wedged between Theatreland and the Tourist Activities off "The West End" in the 1970s. Alive with Blackmail, Coercion, Deception, Bribery, Prostitution, Pornography, Exploitation and Manipulation, even Murder, with Drugs Smuggling and usage never very far from any of it, Soho, was effectively "Hell on Earth" for those unfortunates trapped within its web. After a massive crackdown had been undertaken by London`s Metropolitan Police Service in the early 60s, the void left, created the ideal opportunity for a new kind of gangland ownership, with society individuals, and senior police officers very much involved. This story, somewhat dark and moody, occasionally humorous, but more often, poignant, is almost true.
