Book description
June Dawson has come a long way from the rough East End background
where she met, got pregnant by and eventually married charming,
reckless Johnny Fuller. Now she lives in leafy Rainham, in a nice
little cul-de-sac, with her ultra-respectable second husband and a
lovely social life.
Then her world collapses when daughter Debbie announces that she is
pregnant by her low-life, drug addict boyfriend, Billy McDaid. June
feels as though she is being physically sucked back into the world of
villains and thugs she thought she had escaped for ever.
But worse is to come. Much, much worse. The baby - doted on by his
violent, feckless dad - grows into the child from hell: mean, sadistic
and out of control. Suddenly the family is not just in crisis. It is
in meltdown.
Kimberley Chambers, one-time DJ and street market trader, decided one
fine day that she wanted to better herself, and with virtually no formal
education and no previous experience, settled down to write her first
novel, BILLIE JO. BORN EVIL quickly followed and both were signed up as
part of the Preface fiction first list of acquisitions. She lives in
Romford, close to her childhood friends and family.
