Kitty Neale has become one of the UK's most successful and popular novelists publishing eight books in the last ten years including new book Family Betrayal.
But it was a personal tragedy, the loss of her son when he was just twenty seven in 1998, that led to Kitty picking up a pen and starting to write.
I caught up with to talk about her new book and her success so far.
My latest book, Family Betrayal is based in South London, in 1969. Drapers Alley is a grim and foreboding place that I filled with a family of thieves. Dan Draper has six sons, and one daughter, Petula, who is the apple of his eye.
The Drapers rule the area, and the locals wouldn't dare to enter Drapers Alley without permission. They decide to venture into the porn industry, but when they raise the stakes, moving from soft to hard porn, they step into the territory of another villain, Jack Gaston, and he's even nastier than the Drapers.
A turf war breaks out, with kidnapping and murder the result, but it's Dan's innocent daughter, Petula who pays the price.
