Mo Mozart has struggled as a single mother to bring upher first two children. Now they’ve flown the nest, she’sconcentrating on maintaining a career while being a goodwife to her second, younger husband, Jack, and motherto their little daughter. Mo feels she’s at last getting thebalance of her life right. Until, that is, Jack’s twin sisterasks her to help trace their birth mother. The searchtriggers turmoil in Mo’s life: Jack becomes involved withsomeone else and an old vagrant woman unleashesapparently supernatural encounters.Blood and Water is the first Mo Mozart book; the secondis Kindred Spirits'This easy-to-read novel belies its complex contentand clever plotting that serves as a framework for anintriguing human interest story... it works as socialcommentary on the minestrone soup that family lifeis today and the women holding it together. I lovedMo’s ruminations on how sex education, even privateeducation, affects teenage pregnancies and also theadoption angle of the plot. I loved the group of femalefriends who are sometimes bitchy, but mostly verysupportive of each other’s complex lives. It becomesa page turner as you follow Mo’s determination to findout the truth in several plot strands.'Cate Sweeney, author, Selfish Jean
