Keeping the House

The Turkish variety are prized for their enlarged leaf bud; that's where we put the heroin . . .

Ayla has a plan. There's a stash of heroin; just waiting to be imported. No one seems sure what to do with it; but Ayla's a gardener; and she knows.

From secretive men's clubs to spotless living rooms; Keeping the House is an electrifying debut that lifts the lid on a covert world. But just as it offers a fresh take on the London drug trade and its machinery; it tells the story of three women in one house: a grandmother; a mother; and the daughter; each dealing with the intricacies and reverberations of community; migration and love.
