Marrow

A searing portrait of Birmingham, a city split by class, money and race, Marrow is a thrilling ride through a city divided against itself. ANNA didn't want to upset the perfect life she'd created for her daughter Isabel. She'd tell her the truth about her adoption, just not yet. But when Isabel needs a lifesaving stem-cell transplant, Anna learns her child's history is not what she believed. The key to a donor lies with the family Isabel was taken from, and that family is black. Now, faced with finding Isabel's past to save her, Anna must confront truths she never thought she'd have to. BINO grew up on the wrong side of town, raised first in care and then by the Hamiltons, the city's most notorious crime family. The system took everything soft out of him, and his job keeps it that way. He looks after their girls, but when one of them vanishes, his world is turned upside down. And after watching his father die, Bino isn't going to go away quietly. When Anna discovers Bino is Isabel's brother, their worlds collide and Anna isn't the only one with everything to lose. Now, to save her daughter, she must fight her way through the dark side of a city she thought she knew.
