April 2016 Book of the Month.

What a terrific and powerful book, I reckon it is her best yet.  It covers race, adoption, rejection and even murder (or does it?).  Our hero, Smitty, a black girl, white adopted parents, white long-term boyfriend, discovers her biological family in Brighton.  Naturally there are secrets in the cupboard but you certainly don’t see the details coming.  With a jealous and bitchy cousin and a demanding, and frankly most unpleasant ‘birth’ grandmother both making unreasonable requests, this is, as I’ve said, terrific, especially when the final twist hits you in the stomach.
