Below Luck Level

Chloe Cartwright is an eccentric yet brilliant prize-winning writer, who has always been more focused on political causes than cooking a wholesome meal for her family. Her daughter, Hannah, has never been much good at anything - other than shoplifting, that is. Hannah lacks direction and scrambles through life, before falling, almost by chance, into a successful career as partner to one of Cape Town's leading chefs. Life is looking good - until Chloe's behaviour becomes even more irrational than usual...Is Hannah imagining it? Or is something terribly wrong? Both delightfully readable and powerfully moving, Below Luck Level is the story of a daughter's relationship with her mother and the unexpected challenges of caring for a parent with Alzheimers.
