What Maisie Didn’t Know
Maisie is 31 and weighs 33 stone – that’s 2 stone lighter than when she had to be winched from her window by crane, in a bariatric rescue. An irrepressible force of nature, Maisie is upbeat, funny and self-deprecating. Now after 2 months in Brighton General Hospital she’s being discharged, on a new diet and once again able to walk short distances with the aid of a stick. Maisie’s landlady has used her hospital stay as the excuse to evict her. Fortunately though, after several weeks of every official body dodging responsibility, her “social wonder” has found her a new flat. It’s in a shabby house conversion near the seafront. As well as the partial sea view, Maisie is excited about finally having neighbours. She hopes it will be like the TV show ‘Friends’.

A really unexpected gem that touches on some complex issues and handles them well.
The invidious was of “cuckooing” in the older and disabled community is rarely portrayed so well as well as the complexities of County Lines as a crime.
Well worth a read.
