The Gene Genie

Do you ever escape emotional scars handed down by your parents?
Can you change the path of destiny?
It's 1978. The winter of discontent brings Britain to its knees, the world's first test tube baby is born...and the Sex Pistols play their last gig together. In a downbeat London suburb, teenager Emily Enderbie gives birth to twins, Annie and Bea. Separated at birth in shocking circumstances, the girls face very different futures. Raising vital questions about family, identity, pain and loss, the book explores the way the past stalks the present and the enduring heartache passed from one generation to the next.
