Waterstones Book of The Month for September 2006

Pierre is fourteen years old.  His mother is dead.  His little brother’s back home in Brussels, in the African quarter. His grandmother Missy’s there too, nursing a stack of voodoo recipes and the means to cast a long-distance hex. So how come Pierre’s still stuck in a flat in Camden with the white man he’s not quite comfortable calling Dad?

Ashley Cochrane is an English teacher.  He’s lived abroad too, met a few people, done a few things. He can handle a little squirt like Pierre and his mates. No problem.

Kilburn Hoodoo is a wickedly funny, multi-cultural, modern day tragi-comedy about blame, guilt and vengeance.
