A hard-hitting novel based on my experience of working in the field of addictions

It's the late 1980s and mother of four, Cheryl West, lands herself a job at a drugs project in London. But memories of her old life are never far away, especially when her surly daughter, Elaine, makes her unwelcome visits.

Meanwhile, Cheryl's estranged son, Michael aka Dodo - is ironically having his life destroyed by drug addiction in his attempt to avoid painful memories of abuse. He goes from one chaotic situation to another, ending up on the streets and reaching rock bottom, until he is referred to a drug rehabilitation centre, Chrysalis, in rural Hampshire.

The lives of mother and son nearly coincide, as Cheryl uncovers some dark family secrets. They're each on a journey, but can there be reconciliation as well as rehabilitation?
