Cabbages . . . The Turkish variety are prized for their enlarged leaf bud, that’s where we put the heroin . . .There’s a stash of heroin waiting to be imported, and no one seems sure what to do with it . . . But Ayla’s a gardener, and she has a plan.Offering a fresh and funny take on the machinery of the North London heroin trade, Keeping the House lifts the lid on a covert world thriving just beneath notice: not only in McDonald’s queues and men’s clubs, but in spotless living rooms and whispering kitchens. Spanning three generations, this is the story of the women who keep their family – and their family business – afloat, juggling everything from police surveillance to trickier questions of community, belonging and love.Great for fans of Zadie Smith, Monica Ali and Brit Bennett.-Tice Cin is an interdisciplinary artist from north London.

A producer and DJ, she has released an EP, Keeping the House, to accompany her debut novel of the same name.
