ABOUT THE BOOK:
*This novel contains coarse language, violence, and sexual themes.
‹Sonia yearns for sharp objects and blood. But now that she’s rehabilitating herself as a normal mother and mathematics teacher, it’s time to stop dreaming about slicing people’s throats. While being the wife of Melbourne’s leading drug lord and simultaneously dating his best mate is not ideal, she’s determined to make it work.
It does work. Until Mia, her lover’s daughter, starts exchanging saliva with her son, Mick. They plan to commit a crime behind Sonia’s back. It isn’t long before she finds out and gets involved to protect them. But is protecting the kids really Sonia’s motive?

Note: Jessica Bell and I met virtually when we were both under contract by the same publisher (the press that originally published Leaving the Hall Light On – now out of business). She and I continue to be in touch through our passion for poetry. I heartily congratulate Jessica for what she does to further the writing work of others.
Thanks so much for having me, Madeline!
You are very welcome, Jessica.
