About this ebook
'A truly original voice' Peter James
Dreda Say Mitchell was awarded an MBE in Her Majesty The Queen's 2020 New Year's Honours List
BOOK 2 in the FLESH AND BLOOD series, BLOOD MOTHER shifts to the 70s to tell the troubled tale of one East London family. Perfect for fans of Kimberley Chambers, Martina Cole and Mandasue Heller
1970s London has stopped swinging, but it's not staying still.
Babs thought she had all the world ahead of her. Then she got pregnant and the father did a runner.
Salvation comes in the form of a man who'll look after her. Or so she thinks.
But Stan Miller is the devil in disguise...and over the next twenty years, Babs will have reason to regret she ever met him. Can she protect her family - or will he get the better of her?
The second thrilling book in the FLESH AND BLOOD series, BLOOD MOTHER captures a different world from today. But some things still hold true: be careful what you wish for, and watch out for who you trust . . .

Very readable but as an alternative to kimberley chambers or martina Cole, the grip isn't there, I can put it down

Amazing story. So gritty and so cockney funny. Cannot wait to get hold of the third in the series.
