Charity

By Madeline Dewhurst

Secrets, lies, and a shared past ignite a generational clash in London. Edith, a widow haunted by colonial Kenya, seeks a carer. Lauren, from the East End, needs a home. A rent-free room seems ideal, but their worlds collide, revealing hidden truths. Why is Lauren drawn to Edith's past? Is Paul, the lodger, truly honest? And how does Charity, a Mau Mau victim, connect them all?

In Madeline Dewhurst's captivating debut, race, class, and generation intertwine, spinning a web of deceit. As secrets surface, who will emerge as the spider, and who the fly? Perfect for readers seeking domestic dramas, historical perspectives, and complex characters.
