Dirty Mama

By D.L. Carrington

Some secrets don't stay buried. They breed.

Endora Aaron is beautiful, magnetic and completely unraveling. Trapped in a house frozen in time, obsessed with a man she can never have and haunted by desires no mother should ever feel, she has spent decades convincing herself that what she does to the people closest to her is love.

Her eldest son Marvin has spent just as long trying to survive her. Haunted by a childhood no one knows about, he is fighting to break free, to finish his degree, become the counselor he never had, and build something real with Yolanda. A woman who sees past everything he is afraid to show. But freedom has a price in the Aaron family. Endora has never let anything she loves to walk away without a fight.

Meanwhile the cracks are spreading. Nigel is running with the wrong people toward the wrong money. Philip and Fidal are as different as night and day going in opposite directions. Teri Sinclair, Marshall's wife, and Endora's enemy is holding twenty years of dangerous truth together with shaking hands. And somewhere in Boston, a grandmother named Elsie has been carrying secrets of her own. Secrets that are about to walk themselves right back into Plymouth.

When the streets collect what they are owed and the table is finally set, every lie this family has ever told will have to be spoken out loud.

"Dirty Mama" is a raw, unflinching story about cycles of abuse, the complicated nature of love and what it truly costs a family to keep its secrets and what it takes to finally be free.
