When disgraced journalist Dolly Fontaine discovers that her mother, the seventies film star Gloria Fontaine, was a spy recruited by the British Intelligence Services to ensnare a ruthless Lusenkan dictator, past and present collide with dangerous consequences. Oh, Sugar spans two generations, taking the reader from 21st-century Cornwall to a fictional 1970s dictatorship at the height of the 1970s oil crisis. Both a high-stakes thriller of sassy spies and international espionage, and an emotionally powerful take of a mother and daughter losing, then finding each other - because everyone has secrets, even the people we love the most.
