Whiplash

By Tracey Farren

Tess, a Muizenberg sex worker, is in the business of popping painkillers by the handful and selling her body to strangers. When a condom breaks, her life swings one hundred and eighty degrees. Forced to give up her drugs until she can get to an abortion clinic, Tess goes cold turkey. The sudden clarity opens a window in her mind, leading to a shattering understanding of how she got here.

Tess's quirky humour, raw honesty, and deep love of beauty guide her toward redemption in astonishing places. This novel has a huge heart, like Tess herself, revealing that there is something in everyone that cannot be touched. Not by human hands. Not ever.
