CRACKHEAD
2
‘a new millennium’ by Angela Harrison
Unscrupulous dealers kidnap Jamie.
Fearing for her life she manages to escape.
Jamie decides to abandon her dangerous life-style
by moving back to Stratford-upon-Avon
to be near her mother. Her future is looking bright.
She moves into a small bed-sit and holds
down a full-time job as a waitress.
Jamie is lured back to her first love,
crack,
and works as a prostitute once more. She befriends
middle-aged, divorced, punters whom
she manipulates to finance her habit and lifestyle.
Meanwhile, after years in foster-care,
Jamie’s two children are at long last adopted.
Angela and Max see them on a regular, informal, basis.
