A Scottish student falls for a Sudanese girl, but not everything goes smoothly. With David Tennant as Brian.
Nikki Black owes nobody anything. She's hard, selfish, hurt and vengeful. If only she could stop having
the Fear and falling from one disaster to the next, she could possibly succeed. But a childhood in erratic care has made her
unable to retain a hold on life and when she decides at 28 to kill the mother who left her on the steps of Camden Post Office
as a baby, she gains a clean, clear vindictive purpose. Since the preface of Jane Rogers' sixth novel is a local news report
of the murder, the tale is less a suspense novel than a whydunnit, setting off at a cracking pace, as Nikki describes her
alienation from "the mummied and daddied kids" and her fury at being constantly rejected by her carers.
