Known as Jess to her friends and family but Mistress to her clients, she earns her living as a high class prostitute and dominatrix. Business is going from strength to strength, she enjoys her work and it's a lucrative career that has enabled her to purchase a swanky apartment in upmarket Kensington. Everything in her life changes when by chance she replies to an advertisement in the local newspaper. Within a few weeks Jess's world seems to spiral out of control, when through no fault of her own, she gets caught up in a murder. Can Jess survive, or are outside forces just too powerful. Phillimore Place takes the reader through the trials and tribulations of peoples lives; it will cross class boundaries to show that no one, no matter how wealthy they are, can shield themselves from pain.
