All the Blood is Red

Discover this powerful, provocative novel about three young women whose lives are upended by a sexual assault case.

1996, London.

Nicola, tall and gorgeous, has re-birthed herself. She has landed a breakthrough role and her star is rising – she can feel herself blossoming, can see it in the melting eyes of the men, and the jealous eyes of the women.

If Nicola is a flower, Alexandra is a closed bud. Crushed by heartache from a recent breakup, she wants to succeed as a journalist.

Jeanette has just landed from Manchester. She refuses to let her mother’s warnings about London or her Doc Martens weigh her down: she’s ready for uni – for life – to start.

This is the story of three women – and the mysterious Mavis - as they reach for dreams the whole world seems to want to destroy. But when sexual assault ruptures their world view, they soon discover that those who wear the cloak of friendship – family, community, lovers, peers – often cause the greatest pain.
