Broken Youth

voted No.1 Waterstone's Readers Reviews, April 2010.

"Sex, violence and fractured relationships, a kitchen sink drama that needs to be told and a fresh voice to tell it." Terry Christian.

"It's like 'Raining Stones' and 'Shameless' rolled into one." Smug Roberts.

When rebellious teenager Misty Sullivan falls pregnant to a local wannabe gangster, she soon becomes a prisoner in her own home. Despite the betrayal of her best friend, she eventually recovers her self-belief and plots revenge on her abusive boyfriend with spectacular consequences.

This gripping tale sees the impressive debut of Karen Woods in the first of a series of novels based on characters living on a Manchester council estate. Themes of social deprivation, self-empowerment, lust, greed and envy come to the fore in this authentic tale of modern life.
