London, 1982. When the Clarke family is shattered by the sudden death of their father, three sisters are left to grow up in the shadow of a grief none of them fully understands.
For Kaily Clarke, the youngest, loss becomes rebellion. As childhood gives way to adolescence and adulthood, she searches for belonging through friendships, alcohol, drugs and relationships that promise escape but often deepen the wounds she is trying to outrun.
Then a secret relationship changes the course of her life. Motherhood gives Kaily something worth holding on to, but love, dependency and addiction pull her in opposing directions. As the bonds between the sisters begin to fracture, Kaily must confront the difference between being wanted and being valued-and decide what kind of mother, sister and woman she wants to become.
Spanning nearly three decades, Blood and Young is an intimate story of grief, family, motherhood, addiction, secrecy and recovery.
The first novel in The Sisters of Sorrow series, it explores how the same family history can leave very different scars-and how rebuilding a life can begin with the smallest acts of courage.
