The Recovery of Rose Gold

1 Mins read

This intriguing and unusual debut by Stephanie Wrobel takes the mother/daughter relationship to a whole new level. Rose Gold was in her late teens before she saw her mother’s overweening protectiveness for what it really was – a case of Munchausen syndrome by proxy. Five years on and ‘Poisonous Patty’ is about to leave jail after serving her term for aggravated child abuse. But who’s that waiting at the prison gate? Rose Gold no less, baby in arms, ready to let bygones be bygones. Or is she? As all crime fiction fans know, revenge is a dish best served cold… The book is titled Darling Rose Gold in the USA.
